When your only option is to travel by car

Whilst sustainable transport provides some opportunities for travel – we know that for some people and some trips, the only realistic option is to travel by car.

This website is aimed at providing information on a range of choices, whilst looking to encourage sustainable travel, where possible. We want to minimise unnecessary car trips and thereby free up space for those trips that have no alternative.

To the right you will find links to local live traffic updates and a journey planner to help you choose the quickest and most cost-effective route for your journey.

There are also ways to travel by car in a more sustainable way, and save you money at the same time. To the right you will find further useful information on how you could share your journey by car with others to reduce costs, or how you could simply drive more economically by making small adjustments to your driving style.
