Good, transport infrastructure is essential to facilitate Black Country regeneration by making it easier for people and goods to get from "a" to "b". A lifetime of travelling to work all over the WM conurbation, convinced me that, to deal with the problem of road congestion, some sort of off-road public transport network with Park & Ride was needed (Railways and/or Tramways and/or dedicated Busways). In our climate, Cycling is impractical. Adequate Car Parking needs to be provided within Town Centres to avoid deterring new residents, imprisoning existing ones and promoting their exodus - and to cater for external workers.
