The overarching theme was Active Travel. Slow vehicles down, get people out of their cars, encourage walking and cycling, lay out our streets to put people first, […]

We learned with relief that the absurd plans to demolish the Mall and the housing above it had been withdrawn. But now the AAP is back!
