Fighting car dominance – call for proposals
The Foundation for Integrated Transport (FIT) will make campaigns against the car and its domination of our culture its main theme for 2021.
The Foundation for Integrated Transport was formed by the late Dr Simon Norton in 2014 to make transport better for people and the environment.
Our vision is a world where people can live decently without a car and enjoy good, affordable public transport; where transport causes little climate change; where public transport is integrated and complemented by safe and attractive routes for walking and cycling.
We fund projects that will help to make this vision a reality.
