Keeping Cardiff Moving Travel Plan Network – Walk to Work Week

To support organisations in looking at travel to their sites, Cardiff Council has established the Keeping Cardiff Moving Travel Plan Network.  The Travel Plan Network will provide members with all of the tools and resources needed to promote healthy and active travel, cut car use and reduce the environmental impact of employee travel.  To celebrate Walk to Work Week (26th – 30th April), we will be giving away walking-related promotional materials to organisations signing up to the Keeping Cardiff Moving Travel Plan Network by 30th April.
 
Members of the Keeping Cardiff Moving Travel Plan Network will have access to:
 
• Free online survey (including posters and prizes to encourage maximum participation for effective monitoring)
• Quarterly e-newsletter - updating travel planners on upcoming events, recent news and best practice
• Bi-annual newsletter – travel planning and journey sharing
• Travel plan resources and bespoke advice on starting a travel plan  
• Free (for first year, followed by discounted) membership of Carshare2Cardiff
• Free marketing materials and annual marketing plan
• Bi-annual network meetings/Travel Plan Forums
• Free visit to your site to advise on carrying out a travel audit (for sites with 50+ staff) 
• Eligibility for grant funding (e.g. Keeping Cardiff Moving Grants, Park Your Bike).
 
All you need to do to join the Keeping Cardiff Moving Travel Plan Network is to provide us with some brief details about your organisation and a contact name.  For more information, for a membership form or advice on how to promote sustainable travel within your organisations, please contact Cardiff Council’s Travel Plan Officer on travelplans@cardiff.gov.uk or 029 20 873722.
