The Teddington Travel to Work Network began in November 2007 and is made up of a number of organisation representatives who meet regularly to discuss travel to work issues affecting their workplaces.
It aims to improve workplace travel options for staff and reduce the number of single occupancy car trips to and from work in the Teddington area through promoting and facilitating alternative modes of travel such as cycling, walking and public transport use. The network is a joint initiative developed by SWELTRAC and the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames.
Members of the network can receive benefits including free copies of this leaflet for staff, bike events, cycle training, assistance with setting up a car sharing scheme, bike maintenance courses and expert advice from the travel plan team.
We are working closely with Smarter Travel Richmond upon Thames, which is a three year programme delivered in partnership by Richmond Council and Transport for London. The programme seeks to increase transport choices, improve health, reduce carbon emissions and cut traffic congestion across the borough. By working alongside workplaces, schools, destinations and community groups, the aim is to help people that live, work or visit the borough to discover travel options that are quicker, more convenient and cheaper.
