Residents
Many people have changed their travel behaviour due to the impact of Covid-19, but try to avoid the urge to jump in your car for every journey.
Switching to more sustainable ways of travelling, can have a massive positive impact.
Changing your travel behaviour, by reducing the number of single occupancy car journeys you make:
- could help save money
- reduces congestion
- is kinder for the environment
Shorter journeys can often be made on foot or by bicycle.
There’s lots of FREE information, advice, and services to help you:

Extra support is available for residents in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Worksop
Travel planning support for residents in these target areas was planned for 2020 but was postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak (Covid-19). An amended project is being rolled out in late summer / early Autumn 2021.
Those within the project area will receive information on how to take part in the post. The project will enable residents to apply for a limited number of three month bicycle, e-bike and Fitbit Activity Tracker loans.
What’s in it for me?
Personal travel planning could help you:
- save money on fuel, parking, or taxi fares
- lose weight and get in shape by cycling or walking more (and cut down on time and money you spend at the gym)
- do your bit for the environment by reducing your carbon footprint
- overcome travel barriers that prevent you from getting to where you need to go, whether that’s work, education, for leisure, or visiting family and friends.
