“Current #transport #policy encourages the rich to travel more, further & faster. We’ve seen the institutionalisation of the car as the solution by the elite.” Prof Banister TSU Oxford Socially Just Transp lecture
1 We need to reduce inequality through investment and subsidy. 2 Appraisal should include who wins and who looses 3 All people have the right to good home 4 Yet, #transport plays a key role in raising human capital & accessing opportunities Prof Banister TSU Oxford Socially Just Transp
The focus in #transport is on autonomous & electric vehicles. These vehicles don’t solve our problems We are stuck in this mentality that the car is the solution. New vehicles should be small, light, slow & capable of carrying 1-2 people Prof Banister TSU Oxford Socially Just Transp
