The February discussion brief for Rugby's Conservative Policy Forum will be: "Local Transport."

Politicians spend a lot of time talking about flagship national transport policies such as airports and long distance rail but for many of us the problems are closer to home: the commute to work or school, visiting family during weekend engineering works, or just doing the shopping. Some of these services are privately run, some looked after by central government and others – such as the local road network – the responsibility of local government. Whoever is in charge, we hope that you will tell us what helps and what hinders. How does your local transport affect the productivity of your region? How does it change the structure of your community and its institutions?

The discussion is being held at Rugby Conservative Association, Albert Buildings, 2 Castle Mews, Rugby, CV21 2XL
