Sustainable Transport - New Year Resolution 2023

Why not try a different New Year resolution this time? Switch to sustainable transport - buses, trains, walking, cycling. Start with baby steps - cycle for short trips in the neighbourhood; take the bus or train twice a week to work. To ease your bus/train journey, we suggest finding out about routes via websites, apps, etc.. Here's to a new year with less pollution, traffic, stress, and better physical and mental health for all of us!
