THE MOTORWAY AND THE CITY
Three programmes devoted to this theme:
1: Nottingham's New Deal
Plans to ease the transport problems of cities by building urban motorways are increasingly under attack. Nottingham has recently scrapped its entire motorway programme and has plumped for public transport. Will it work? Speakers include:
Professor M. W. Barley, chairman of the Civic Society; Brian Collins, director of Technical Services, City of Nottingham; Ray Gosling, author, chairman of a local Tenants' Association; Councillor Frank Higgins, chairman of Transport Committee, Nottingham Corporation; Clive Kaye, manager of Victoria Centre; Ronald Walton, director of Nottingham Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
