Do you have the "travel-friendliest" workplace in the UK?

This national award is given to the organisation that can demonstrate the biggest strides towards making their offices more accessible to commuters. It is open to both public and private sector employers, and can be awarded for either a single site, or multi-site operation.

The judges will look for evidence of the following - we have provided hyperlinks to the guidance on our website about the types of information the are talking about:

  • effective project management and development of a travel plan
  • Successful partnerships developed with public transport operators, the private sector or other organisations in delivering the travel plan
  • Development and promotion of travel plan elements such as active travel facilities, car share or home working schemes
  • Evidence of a positive change in staff travel patterns showing success in achieving a reduction in single occupancy vehicle journeys, and modal shift to sustainable transport modes
  • Promoting the concept of travel planning to other organisations locally and nationally
