Cars for coupons

Would you scrap your car for a public transport voucher to help reduce emissions?

Motorists in Wales could be offered the chance to scrap older cars in exchange for public transport vouchers in an attempt to cut congestion and improve air quality. It is one of the proposals put forward by the Urban Mobility Partnership, where people would be offered mobility credits for use on trains, buses, car clubs and bike hire. It comes just days after Wales declared a ‘climate emergency’ and was warned greenhouse gases need to be cut by 95% by 2050 to help tackle global warming.
