§ Dr. KumarTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions if he will make a statement on the promotion and use of the Traveline website. [16428]
§ Mr. JamiesonTraveline currently is primarily a telephone service offering route and timetable information on all forms of public transport. A website is being developed to supplement the telephone service. The website can be seen at www.traveline.org.uk. and links to all currently available public transport journey planners in the UK. During 2002, journey planners for more regions will become available and will be linked from the site. As coverage of these services becomes more comprehensive the national Traveline website will be given more active promotion.
