London Olympics to ban all cars.
London Olympics organisers want to ban the aniticpated eight million spectators from travelling by car in the capital during the 2012 Games.
According to the Times (London), the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), the team organising the London Olympics in 2012, wants to make the Games a testing ground for a radical shift in transport planning to be extended to all major cultural and sporting events. It is even trying to deter spectators from using cars for part of their journey and has cancelled plans in the original bid for two giant park-and-ride sites on the M25 and M11.
