PUBLIC TRANSPORT AND CLEANER AIR

The Green Party will cancel the road building programme and instead invest in safer roads and in helping many more people to walk and cycle.

After fierce lobbying London Green Assembly members ensured that all new London buses will run on hybrid engines by 2012, creating a third less pollution.

We will repeat this success in all UK cities. We would create travel plans for workers and invest more money to promote car sharing.

The Green Party would bring the railways back under public control. We would create more jobs by expanding rail networks.

The New Labour Government has failed to combat increasing air travel. Unlike the other political parties we would say 'no' to Heathrow and prevent the expansion of Britain's other airports.
