Travel Planning and Advice

A travel plan is a long term management strategy for a site, group of sites or organisation which contains a package of measures to:

reduce the need to travel (especially as a single occupant in a car)

The associated benefits of a travel plan are that they can help:

improving staff well-being, health and fitness as well as the environment
build better relationships with the local community, public transport operators and the local authority.
