Why Travel Plans?• In the UK there is increasing pressure on business and organisations,
(including Colleges and Universities) to implement Travel Plans. Reasons include:
• Environmental Impacts - climate change, consumption of natural resources, decreases in local air quality, land use, land and water pollution, noise, light pollution.
• Business Impacts - environmental performance and legislation, cost of congestion, employee sickness, cost of fuel and taxes, car parking, new build implications.
• Social Impacts - pressure from local communities and local authorities, accidents, safety, health, access.
Before you can manage these issues, you need to collect data and monitor changes – HOW!!!

Travel Plan Data Sources/Information Employee Commuter Questionnaire
Car Park and On Street Surveys
Site Travel Reviews (can include)– Fleet vehicles (i.e. Estates vehicles) – Business Travel (All forms, including air travel)– Company Car Fleet– Visitors !!
Secondary Data – Company Reports– Meetings (Minutes)– Government Publications
![Page 8: Monitoring: Continuous Improvements & Achieving Results Scott Copsey Travel Plan Coordinator University of Hertfordshire.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062809/56649efe5503460f94c13b14/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
An Employee Travel Survey allows: Identify how employees commute to work and the reasons
for using their mode of travel Identify employees characterises for G.I.S. analysis
(i.e. post code analysis) Identify employees who could potentially change their
mode of transport Consider measures appropriate to implement and target
to different demographic groups Awareness raising of Travel Plan as well as solicit
suggestions which could be adopted

Maintaining Momentum
• Data are important for setting Headline Targets and then assessing what impact measures (specific or a package) have
• Staff/Commuter Questionnaires provide the building blocks of a Travel Plan, but can be backed up using car park/ on street parking counts and site reviews
