Travel Throughout Your Life
Travel better - live better. That's the motto.
Changing the way you travel may not always be easy. But re-considering your travel options as your life changes can make things better for you. Times you could think about changing your travel habits and trying something different may be:
- Moving home
- Changing jobs
- Having children
- Children starting/leaving school
- New transport alternatives near your home
- Having to adjust your finances
- Retiring
If your children are leaving school or home, perhaps you have the opportunity to downgrade to a smaller, more fuel efficient car. If you are moving to a new house or job, take the opportunity to look into the new public transport links or walking/cycling routes rather than automatically getting in the car. If you do have to drive, why not sign up with www.carsharesomerset.com and find a car share partner? It could help you meet new friends as well as save you money!
Take a look at our Journey Planner to investigate your alternatives and use our Travel Change Calculator to see what the benefits might be.
Speak to your friends and family to see if they've picked up any good tips about travelling in a better way. If you know some yourself, suggest them to friends, family and colleagues. Word of mouth goes a long way.
