Bristol's Park and Ride services will be expanded as part of plans to reduce congestion post lockdown.

That's what Mayor Marvin Rees has told us as part of our exclusive Leaders in Lockdown interview - as we put your questions to the man in charge of our city.

It comes as there's been some debate about where an M32 Park and Ride could go.

Campaigners have been expressing caution and point out there is no mention of it in the Local Plan for South Gloucestershire where it would be located.

But earlier this week Bristol City Council strategic city transport service manager Adam Crowther said “progress” was being made and now Marvin has told us discussions have been held with South Gloucestershire Council.
