Identify interventions to reduce your travel-related carbon hotspots

Use the results of your regular travel survey, along with your carbon footprint calculation, to understand which travel habits create the most significant contribution to your setting's carbon and greenhouse gas emissions.

This approach will help you to focus on solutions that produce the greatest impact, which can be time-saving and streamline the effort needed to reduce your carbon footprint.

There are a variety of interventions that can be implemented, to suit all budgets and resource availability, such as promoting walking routes, creating cycle groups, creating a carpooling programme, holding car-free days or creating active travel competitions and prizes. Using the results of your travel survey it will help you to choose the interventions that best align with your community's needs, which will improve the likelihood of engagement and success.

Benefits include reducing your setting's overall carbon footprint, improving air quality, improved health and wellbeing in your setting's community, and reduced traffic.
