      Hi

      I think with things like the london congestion charge, upgrades to public transport and investment in high speed trains that people will use their cars alot less.

      Driving can be very expensive and petrol prices are only going up. Where possible i think people do walk – but for long distances i think cars will always be around

      I hope it does. Cities are all about moving the most people around as possible. Cars are not very efficient at that because the need too much space. One person walking or on a bike or on a bus is much more efficient in terms of environment and space so I think we will see much more of that in future.
