Has Brighton and Hove Council gone mad? In a week when there has never been greater emphasis on the need to reduce traffic and save further global warming, the decision to impose a 60 per cent increase in the park and ride fare from Withdean Stadium can only persuade more people to drive into Brighton.

One can only assume Brighton and Hove Council hopes to reduce the number of passengers on this excellent and friendly service and eventually use it as an excuse to close it down. While Brighton already has traffic problems, it appears the council is bent on creating further chaos!
