Default Park and Ride in Manchester

Charlie

A proper response to the ridiculous TIF proposals is much bigger than
park and ride, but the header is park and ride, so that is what I
wrote about

I believe an outer Manchester Ring - Wigan / Bolton / Bury /
Rochdale / Oldham / Ashton / Staly / Stockport / Navigation Road /
Glazebrook / Warrington CLC/WCML curve / Wigan, with interchanges to
the radial routes, major park and ride and a judicous Metrolink and
bus regime would be a far preferable answer.

Unfortunately the GMPTE consultation is not a dialogue but a question
- "Do you want bananas?" When the answer might be "Apples Oranges and
Pears would be better" but there's no way of saying it -

Its TIF or Nothing to the PTE
