Quote from: BBC
Plans for a once-a-month car-free day to curb pollution in Southampton have been proposed.

The scheme could see streets in the city centre closed to traffic on Sundays.

Clean Air Southampton and Southampton Friends of the Earth has put the proposal to the city council.

It is understood it is currently being considered by authority bosses, the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) said.

The campaign groups are asking the council to start the initiative in September.

Will they have finished rail improvement work in the Southampton area by September, so that you can get there without a car (or bustitution).?
