Today’s poll results show that there is certainly an appetite for this in Glasgow.” Local authorities also need to show themselves willing to tackle more difficult schemes even if this leads to less space for cars. But we need to see more action by all Scottish local authorities as progress has been too slow in many parts of the country. “Lockdown has shown that when there is an urgent need to prioritise travel by foot and bike, action can be taken quickly to make these changes. For many, this has given a taste of a future where getting around on foot or by bike is an option for those who did not consider this possible before, and where people have priority in urban spaces, not cars.”Ĭolin Howden, Director of Transform Scotland, said: With traffic greatly reduced during lockdown, people have been able to experience clean air, safe streets, and quiet and enjoyable urban spaces. “For many people, our towns and cities have been shown in a new light since travel restrictions came into place. In a foreword to the report, Cllr Anna Richardson, Glasgow City Council’s Convener for Sustainability and Carbon Reduction, writes: To accompany the poll findings, Transform Scotland has published a new report, ‘Active Recovery’ which sets out recommendations for locking-in the active travel benefits of the lockdown. Specific figures for Glasgow are in the notes, below. Only 16% say they will no longer use buses and trains due to the risk of contagion.

Among those who say they used public transport before the pandemic, 20% say they will continue to use it regardless of the risk and 60% say they will start using public transport again if sufficient hygiene measures are taken. The survey also finds that reluctance to use public transport, observed since the lockdown, will not persist if buses and trains are safe to use. The survey shows strong support for cities to ban polluting cars, speed up bus trips and provide safe routes to walk and cycle.” “City residents have appreciated the cleaner air and quieter streets during the lockdown and recognise a city with fewer cars is better. Greg Archer, UK Director of Transport & Environment said: The introduction of Zero Emission Zones that ban polluting cars from cities receives support from 71% of respondents and opposition from just 12%. Additional cycle lanes are supported by 63% (19% against), with more support in younger age groups, and additional bus lanes are supported by 59% (18% against).

The survey, commissioned by transport think-tank Transport & Environment, finds that reallocating road space to create more room for pedestrians is supported by 76% of respondents (just 8% opposed). A similarly high level of support is observed across all the cities, between men and women, and among different age and income groups. Four in five residents (81%) in London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and Glasgow are in favour of measures to reduce car emissions and use, with fewer than 1 in 10 (8%) rejecting action. The YouGov poll of residents in five UK cities reveals overwhelming support for measures to protect health by tackling air pollution emissions from cars. Transform Scotland has today (Thursday 11 June) published YouGov poll findings and a new report.
