Transport Times invites you to its party conference fringe events

Low Cost & Low Carbon – Delivering Sustainable Transport in an Age of Austerity

This year Transport Times is collaborating with Greener Journeys and Low CVP to host the Climate Clinic transport fringe events at all three main political party conferences.  The events are all free of charge and are located outside the secure zone so attendees will not require a pass to attend.  The events will take as their theme the critical issue of how to deliver sustainable transport in an age of austerity.
