What is a business travel plan?

A travel plan is a package of practical measures to reduce the cost and environmental impact of work-related travel by offering staff realistic and cost-effective alternatives to their car. But it is not anti-car. Travel plans promote flexible and sustainable transport solutions, such as car share schemes, working from home and cycle facilities, tailored to businesses' individual needs.

What a travel plan can do for your business

A dedicated travel plan, backed up by the appropriate resources, can overcome many of your company's transport problems, save you money and deliver benefits to your staff and business.

It can: 

• Reduce costs and time spent on commuting and business travel.
• Make car parks more cost-effective and reduce congestion around your site.
• Encourage staff retention and recruitment and improve staff fitness levels.
• Protect your environment and enhance your image with your community and your clients.
