'Travel Plan' is a general term for a package of measures tailored to the needs of individual business premises and aimed at promoting more sustainable travel choices and reducing reliance on the car.
The Confederation of British Industry (CBI) estimate that traffic congestion costs the UK economy over £15 billion each year. Unrestrained traffic growth leads to greater traffic congestion, delayed deliveries, increased fuel consumption, time
lost in traffic jams and employee stress caused by the journey to and from work. These place an unnecessary burden on both employers and staff.
The road building policies of the 1980’s promised to free motorists from congestion and make getting around easier for all. As we now know, far from solving the problem, congestion has increased significantly over the past twenty years and with it has come an increase in pollution and climate change.
