Mobility and Travelling
Promote sustainable travel options for your members or for any events you run
Why?
68% of all car journeys taken across the UK are under 5 miles (and 23% are under 1 mile) and transport is one of the largest contributors to Devon’s carbon footprint. If you are running an event, encourage people to travel sustainability.
How?
Travel Devon has a wealth of resources on how to easily cycle and travel more for shorter distances. For longer distances, it also has a lot of information on planning trips by public transport. Highlighting these resources to your participants or members could help them to adopt more sustainable options. If public transport is not an option, why not facilitate car sharing between participants – signpost them to Car Share Devon or to the Pasty Connection for SW based car sharing.
