Planning your journey can be time consuming. It can be much easier to get in your car and let Google maps direct you to your destination. By doing so however, you could be spending more time and money than necessary. This is why as your Travel Plan Coordinator, we can provide each resident of The Oaks a free Personal Travel Plan.
What are Personal Travel Plans (PTP)?
A PTP provides you with all the information you require on your travel options, to and from a regular destination. We include active methods of travelling such as walking, cycling, public transport and car-sharing where applicable. These options are shown in comparison to each other, helping you evaluate the best travel option.
Each travel mode analysed by the PTP will show you:
It is personalised to you specifically and it can save you time. Our PTP is the one place to go to that shows you everything you need to know with various modes of transport. Looking for the quickest walking route? A quiet cycling route? Or cheaper public transport options?
To create your personal travel plan, we would need some information from you. Simply email [email protected] or fill out The Oaks Travel Survey, then we will be able to generate the best sustainable travelling options for you.
Journey planning is key. Sometimes we don’t know how much money we are spending just on travelling to work alone, or how much money you could be saving by just changing your habit slightly. By making positive changes to the way you travel, you can help the environment by reducing carbon emissions and alleviate road congestions, and encourage your friends, family and co workers to travel greener as well. In addition, you are also saving much more money, and creating a healthier lifestyle for your physical and mental health.
That is true. However, Google cannot simply calculate the most cost efficient option for you, or show you the best public transport option. Smarter Travel Limited are specialists in sustainable travel planning, and so we are always in the loop about various travelling options, vouchers and discounts that are available for residents.
Google also does not take into consideration the health of the planet or you. We believe that even if it does not change your habit overnight, it can at least get you to rethink it.
Why not consider us? We are one platform that provides you with all the necessary information you need and more.
