All about why Mr Prescott's 10 year transport plan didn't happen.
Might be worth a listen.

Well I did, and it was disappointing - except for Phil Goodwin and his
point that the politicians keep on going round and round without
getting anywhere. Prescott said about the 10 year plan: "it got people
thinking", yet he was not picked up on the key White Paper statement
that we had to have a partnership between the various organisations.
That didn't happen, yet it seems Adonis is now trying to lead another
partnership concept.

As for David Begg, words fail me...


David Begg's words failed him too! As Chairman of the Commission on
Integrated Transport, he was about as ineffectual as any human being
could have been.

Too many words, no action.
