Infographic of results from smarter travel report 2024 showing distances travelled and potential for active travel

Key to motivating staff & students to travel to campus more sustainably is to show the potential rate of active travel. Distance is often used as an indicator for a potentially active trip- up to 3km is potentially a walkable commute & up to 10km a potential trip by bike.https://tinyurl.com/46m3p8xm
