Safer Driving Techniques

We look at greener and safer driving techniques, helping drivers to save money by driving more economically. By doing that, it also produces a safer driver.

School Travel Plan

A School Travel Plan is an investigation looking at different ways to encourage children travel to school sustainably. By reducing the traffic to schools we hope to make it safer for walkers and cyclists, improve the health and fitness of students and highlight the environmental benefits, such as improved air quality locally and reduced travel costs for parents.

If you would like to improve the safety outside your school, have issues with parking or would like a 20mph area, we would like to hear from you.
