30% of Sheffield households have no access to a car or van and in some wards it is much higher. In Sheffield Central 60% of households have no access to a car or van. Designing a transport system around assumed car ownership creates transport poverty.

This scheme won't 'bust' any congestion. Road widening will induce demand for more car journeys leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions, worsening our illegal air pollution levels and health problems for Sheffield people. 1960's transport 'planning' at its worst.
