Tony Dyer: Bristol must grasp the nettle and stop being slave to cars
The over-reliance on the car constitutes a major reason why I became a member of Living Streets which campaigns to improve the liveability of our streets
Tony Dyer: There’s nothing black and white in Bristol green spaces ‘victory’
The green space problem is a complex one, and should not be used as yet another political football by those seeking to simply increase their own particular party’s chances in a future election
Tony Dyer: Ashton Vale town green deal not worth paper it’s printed on
The Ashton Vale town green compromise is, it now appears, not worth the committee paper it was printed on. The council has failed in even the most basic task of registering the correct piece of land
Tony Dyer: Confessions of a failed Bristol rioter
We, as a society, appear to have learned almost nothing over the last 30 years and continue to make the same mistakes – it is only a matter of time until the next outbreak of violence
Tony Dyer: Bristol bus rapid transit scheme is just tinkering around the edges

Tony Dyer: Why can’t Bus Rapid Transit fans see Portishead rail link is better plan?
