Or maybe lure them out with super cheap gasoline outside the city?
Uh, what? The highest % one and with no negative elements is racked 4th?
*4. Mobility service for commuters*
How about public transport that is cheaper and as fast as personal cars? My local town decided to increase bus prices to £5.30 per person, which means as soon as it’s more than one person is cheaper to park in the centre for 7 hours.
For me it’s always better to drive in as public transport is impossible where I am, and I can charge my car for free.
