The Urban Mobility Partnership was mentioned in Air Quality News this week for the Greater Manchester Transport Hustings we hosted with mayoral candidates Mayor Andy Burnham, Councillor Jake Austin (Liberal Democrats) and Councillor Michael Welton (Green Party, representing candidate Councillor Hannah Spencer), and which was chaired by UMP Member Julian Scriven, Managing Director of Brompton Bicycle.
Air Quality News provides an overview of the topics discussed at the hustings, including Mayor Burnham’s plans to fully integrate the public transport system, Councillor Welton’s ‘kerbside strategy’ and Councillor Austin’s suggestion of a circular Metrolink. The piece primarily focuses on the candidates’ policies for tackling air pollution.
