Worcestershire Climate Change Pledge
Action: Develop and implement a staff travel plan.
Implementing a staff travel plan can offer employees & visitors improved transport choice and reduce the need to travel, helping reduce congestion, improve air quality and promote sustainable travel. Travel choices offered may include bus, train, bicycles, walking, motorcycles and car sharing, to reduce reliance on single occupancy car travel for commuter journeys and business travel.
