Travel plan

In 2020, the University set an ambitious new target to reduce single car commuting to campus by 50% by 2030. The sustainable commuting target continues to focus on promoting alternatives to the car. Walking, cycling and bus are the main options as set out in the University Travel Plan.

With investment into bus services, cycling facilities, car sharing support and new cycle/walking pathways from the village to campus, single car occupancy commuting has reduced significantly. You can see the latest progress in our annual environment reports.

We have now published our 2024 Travel Plan, built using data taken from travel surveys we conducted in April 2023 and 2024. We plan to update this on an annual basis.
