I agree with DF Phillips from Portslade who recently highlighted the massive problem of pollution in the city. All initiatives to reduce car journeys should be encouraged.
We all know the school run is one of the largest contributors to pollution in this city and yet Brighton and Hove City Council recently proposed changes to the schools admissions system which would have resulted in a massive increase in car journeys around the city.
The increase in car journeys would have been most prominent across The Level - the precise area designated as the "Air Quality Management Area" due to the acute pollution problem there.
Luckily for the environment, the Children Families and Schools Committee voted against these proposals.
