We work in partnership with the five local authorities in Tyne & Wear to help develop and deliver Travel Plans, and on behalf of the Local Transport Plan partners we manage the Smarter Choices initiative.
Our primary objective in supporting travel planning is to reduce reliance on single person car use, by promoting realistic alternatives, particularly public transport.
As traffic levels rise, and congestion increases, it is increasingly important to address how people get to employment sites, residential developments, health and education centres and offer advice on other methods of travel than just the car.
For advice and guidance on travel plans and the travel choices available to you, whether as an individual or as an organisation, go to the Tyne & Wear Smarter Choices website at www.gosmarter.co.uk. Your organisation can also sign up here to the free Tyne & Wear Travel Plan Network. For information on public transport services and tickets please return to the home page of this website.
