Yet, coaches, properly organized, could provide a fast, comfortable, and efficient transport system which would radically cut congestion, pollution, energy use and transport costs. They just use existing capital – motorways – far more efficiently. The system needs reorganisation." So begins Dr Alan Storkey's ingenious, simple and cost-effective plan to create a Motorway Based National Coach System. If the aim is to save the most fossil fuels for the minimum cost, then this should be given a high priority. http://www.bepj.org.uk/motorway-based-coach-system “At present, coach transport is atrociously organized, moving a relatively small number of people at 20-30mph.
