Sustainable Travel advice for Havering's business community
The 2019 LB Havering Smarter Travel Business Pack
Please find below information about Havering Smarter Travel Pack titled “making Smarter Choices: Travel advice for Havering’s business community”
This pack has been produced by the Council’s Smarter Travel team, and they are funded through the London Mayor’s Air Quality Fund (MAQF) which assists boroughs in their work to help reduce the level of harmful emissions.
The Business Packs were originally launched in 2016 and the Council is now pleased to publish this updated version. It has been produced to help assist businesses in the borough on cleaner and other sustainable practises and is designed to help local businesses consider actions which could potentially save them money.
The aim is to provide information that we hope you will find useful, including free opportunities such as the offer of cycle training for businesses. It also contains details of who to contact if you are interested in applying for a small grant (of up to £3,000) that could help increase levels of active travel for your staff or business. The numbers of grants we can award are limited and match-funding is recommended.
Funding could be used to purchase bikes for staff to use (pool bikes), changing facilities at your premises, cycle storage, workforce competitions and challenges. We are happy to discuss any ideas you have.
You can let us know what you think of the Business Packs and if there is something you would like us to consider adding to it – please email [email protected] – thank you.
Please contact myself if you have any comments on the packs or you would like to discuss any of the opportunities contained.
Yours faithfully,
Martin Day
Smarter Travel Officer, LB Havering
