How do travel plans work?
The benefits of a travel plan are wide ranging and include financial savings for the organisation, a healthier and happier workforce, the freeing up of valuable car parking spaces and a reduction in commuting costs for employees.
A travel plan is a package of initiatives designed to reduce the number of car journeys made by an organisation. It looks at current travel patterns and suggests realistic alternatives. A travel plan encourages the increased use of sustainable transport such as cycling, walking and the use of public transport.
Constructing a travel plan involves looking at current travel patterns such as how staff commute to and from work; the operation of the organisation's fleet; business travel arrangements and visitor access to the organisation. The plan is specific to the business and will take into consideration the type of company and type of journeys likely to be made.
A number of incentives are on offer when companies agree their travel plan. These include up to £1,000 of match funding for the provision of facilities to enable the use of sustainable transport, free cycle stands for up to 40 bicycles and trade price Raleigh bicycles for pool cycle facilities (40% saving).
