Yes, to reduce congestion
@9D329771yr1Y
Public Transport should be nationalised. It is not a luxury item.
@9NL828Q7mos7MO
Yes - The UK is a joke compared to other European countries whose public transport is cleaner, cheaper and easier to navigate.
@9NGGVVM7mos7MO
Yes, but it should remember the North needs transportation upgrades aswell rather than only investing in the south and London.
@9NBB2V8 7mos7MO
I think that is a lot of money to spend but there are clearly areas that need improving, so the money should be spent going towards better solutions suhc as environmentally friendly or disability access.
@9NB7S2V7mos7MO
Rail should be re-nationalised for starters. Needs to be a better and more efficiently run network.
@9N4P2PG7mos7MO
Yes, especially in cities outside of Greater London. The standards of public transport in big cities in the UK do not even partially meet the standards of TFL.
@9MRYBPQ 7mos7MO
No, the government should spend that money on releasing the services from foreign private corporations
