How you commute impacts the environment as well as your pocket.

Cars are the most popular mode of travel in the UK1 but we need to switch to walking, cycling and public transport to tackle climate change and reach net zero.

Increased use of public transport has environmental, health and societal benefits.
Reducing car journeys means less vehicles on the road, a decrease in congestion and reduced air and noise pollution.
