James Palmer on the autonomous metro
James Palmer has a vision for Cambridgeshire in which people travel under the city in autonomous pods.
It sounds crazy, but when you talk to him, you hear just how it seems to make sense.
As Mayor of the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority, he explains how he’s dealing with a fast-growing city, low population density and houses in the wrong place.
We talk about Cambridge Autonomous Metro, funding it through farmland and the role of Mayors in the modern world.
