Moving from a negative to a positive transport cycle

Transcript: Oxford is caught in a negative cycle. Cars are the default way to get in and out of Oxford > More traffic > Slower buses, horrible walking and cycling > People see driving as their only option > Cars are the default way to get in and out of Oxford. How do we get into a positive cycle? More people walk, bus, and cycle for some journeys > Less traffic > Faster buses, safer and nicer walking and cycling > People feel like they have other choices than to drive > More people walk, bus, and cycle for some journeys.
