Future Development
Planning permission has been given for a new line of the Park and Ride scheme, extending from Poppleton Bar with a 1,250 space capacity. The plan has attracted opposition from local residents, due to its use of a small section of farmland designated as a 'village green' in Poppleton. The council has insisted that this will be offset with a community facility. Construction is set to begin in early 2013 in two phases, offering a 600 space capacity initially.
York council also has plans to extend the Askham Bar site to increase overall capacity as part of its £22 million 'Access York' scheme.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or development:
“The danger of the past was that men became slaves. The danger of the future is that men may become robots. True enough, robots do not rebel. But given man’s nature, robots cannot live and remain sane, they become “Golems,” they will destroy their world and themselves because they cannot stand any longer the boredom of a meaningless life.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
“For decades child development experts have erroneously directed parents to sing with one voice, a unison chorus of values, politics, disciplinary and loving styles. But duets have greater harmonic possibilities and are more interesting to listen to, so long as cacophony or dissonance remains at acceptable levels.”
—Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)
