Free bus travel for all to help slash UK transport sector pollution?

Environmental campaigners have suggested that bus use should be made free to all to encourage less car use and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

How realistic is that though? With many areas of the country with no (or very sporadic) bus service how can you really expect everyone to stop using their own personal transport options?

  • Its not just the cost but the generated pollution all these buses would exhale. It would however, provide work for bus drivers, manufacturers and workshop maintenance. You must remember that unless the figures generate a surplus then it will never get off the ground.
