| “If you can afford a smartphone, you probably won't be travelling by bus ;-) And even if you were, flashing one around at a bus stop is an invitation to muggers.” Oh come on Richard – all social classes and income groups now use London’s buses. Smart phones with myriad apps are de rigueur amongst teenagers and young adults. We’ve come a long way in terms of transport inclusiveness since Maggie made that famous speech about a man using a bus to travel to work being a failure in life. Felicity – if you email transportplanning@hounslow.gov.uk I’m sure that Mark Frost (transport planning team leader) will give you chapter and verse on his efforts over several years to get TfL to provide extra Countdown displays, either from their own budget or funded by the Council's s106 funds. |
