A travel plan is a document that shows a commitment to sustainable and active travel. It details travel behaviours, patterns and highlights any goals and concerns. The Travel Plan outlines the steps needed to achieve the agreed objectives and goals.
We suggest that you make a Travel Plan in order to:
- add accountability to your goals and provide a focus for achieving them
- encourage and enable staff and visitors to travel more sustainably for business and commuting, including walking, cycling, scooting, wheeling, and using buses and trains
- support any future planning applications and business development opportunities
Why you need a travel plan
Addressing climate and health concerns in our community is increasingly important. Many short journeys that could be made actively or by public transport are currently done by single occupancy car trips, and this has consequences such as congestion, reduced air quality, and can impact individuals’ finances, health and wellbeing.
A travel plan keeps businesses and teams accountable and enables progress, providing a focused approach to sustainable travel.
