I live in the UK and my town has not got transport that allows mobility for all. No bike lanes (and if they exist they’re just painted on the road), no bus lanes (buses get stuck in the same rush hour traffic and everyone else which doesn’t incentivise people to take them) and these buses are also unreliable and infrequent. What makes it worse is that my local council is right leaning. How do I hold my local council accountable to implementing even the cheapest solutions to traffic and transportation? How can I lead to public transport change in my community?

    I would love to attend local meetings but there are no meetings with public transport on the agenda on their schedul AT ALL. It seems like I would have to shoehorn public transit in which could potentially alienate the cause. I’m also not sure if I really know enough about the implementation of public transport - if I’m met with pushback I can’t deal with I’m not sure if the cause will survive.
