    I should hope you'd get lights and mudguards for £2100

    And if you have to transport anything and if there is a vaguely sensible cycling route the way you want to go

    It would be great, and i'll always support public transport improvements, but the logistical issues of what you're suggesting are overwhelming. What would you move to site the track? More realistically the 700 route is good, but slow and finding ways to get this moving faster is probably the...

    I think there's another point about transport options. Status, or perceived status. In our national psyche, if you get a bus, you're a bus w****** ... (That's why the episode was funny... there's an element of truth that, that is how we see things). If you cycle, you're doing it because you...

    Another desirable feature of a park and ride of course is that the distances travelled by the buses are small enough so they can get to and from the destination quickly. Marina car park full? Never seen it full, usually loads of capacity there. Same with the Asda one. People who use the...

    Disclaimer, (not a public transport professional or expert) I’d add my weight to the comment that Brighton does take a while to get around in, by foot, bus, bike or car compared to similar sized cities, (London isn’t really a fair comparison). There are some fairly simple and relatively low...

    Thanks very much for the photos It’s only when you see them you realise the alarming scale of the decline then shudder to think of what’s to come. It never fails to confuse me. It’s not like there was no pressure on public funds at local or national level at the time those photos we’re taken...

    I'm in favour of more cycle and bus lanes .... though this should be a part of a city-wide joined up transport strategy. Cutting car lanes from 4 to 2. Ok there's the stick for drivers. where's the carrot to get into or around town in other ways? If we could turn Brighton into a cycling...
