I have enjoyed these two short episodes on Radio 4 recently from Lynsey Hanley.
She discusses bus deregulation and the drastically variable provision of bus services in different parts of the country in the first episode, and then a slightly more jumbled discussion of local transport by railway in the second episode.
It's really interesting to hear this being talked about from the point of view of a mid-life professional who has built her family and career car-free. It has been something in my thoughts too recently about how I'm going to plan my own life in that respect. I'm aware of a significant number of friends including forum members who operate successfully in that way, with varied degrees of compromise on the different parts of their life.
