UK Government's plan for 'door-to-door' transport 2013-03-18| 작성자 : 관리자| 조회 : 559

UK Transport Minister, Norman Baker, has unveiled the government’s plan to make seamless, convenient journeys, using greener modes of transport, an everyday reality. Speaking at the launch of the ‘door-to-door’ strategy, the government’s vision for a flourishing, joined-up, sustainable transport system, Baker said, “Helping people use greener modes of transport will help create growth and cut carbon, easing congestion on our roads and encouraging people to opt for greener, healthier options. But to make that happen, we need low carbon travel to become as easy as jumping into the car. This strategy pulls together, for the first time, a whole range of different areas of work aimed at making sustainable transport a viable option for everybody. When people are thinking about their journey, they naturally think about the cost and complexity of the entire trip, door to door, not just the ride on the train or bus. So, as well as cutting out the hassle of travelling by bike, by foot and by public transport, we need to make it simpler and more reliable to combine different ways of travelling to get the whole way from A to B. A sustainable journey is only as attractive as its weakest link.”
