And not suffer like other cities -- girdlock and pollution that comes with growth. Car demand management policies -- this is the key part component of the whole package. We need to do this to ensure we continue to live in a city in a garden and not a city in a car park."

So, starting from May 2009, the growth rate will be halved to 1.5 per cent a year, from the current 3 per cent.
