• Traffic jams
  • Road rage
  • Fumes and pollution
  • Rising petrol costs
  • Unhealthy, sedentary lifestyles

And these are just some of the disadvantages of car use. We now travel more than ever before which has resulted in even more cars on the road. If we don't change the way we travel the situation will get worse.

Car usage is a convenient option for some journeys.  However it is often not the quickest, healthiest, cheapest or most convenient travel option for short journeys.

Reducing our reliance on the car will help to achieve:

  • Safer journeys to school/work
  • Healthier lifestyles
  • Less pollution
  • Less stressful journeys
