Title: Its Official - Cheapest Travel is by car Post by: martyjon on July 18, 2007, 07:03:12 Heard on BBC Radio 4 this am (18/07/2007) that a report, reported on in The Independent, says that with the increase in rail and bus fares, up over 50% in both cases, it is now cheaper to travel by car, down 10% in the compariable period.
