Benefits

A school travel plan is about much more than simply making sure kids can get to school on time. By giving children and parents alternatives to using the car on the school run, there are plenty of other benefits too.

• Less congestion around the school and in the local community. 
• Healthier, happier, more alert pupils thanks to ‘active’ travel like cycling and walking.
• Less pollution around the school and local area.
• Council-led improvements to cycling and walking routes.
• Better bike storage at schools through local grants and government funding.
