There’s a journey planning tool for Leicester and Leicestershire with a difference – the Choose How You Move Journey Planner. This prioritises sustainable travel to support the high number of households without access to a car.
Simple to use, it helps people find the most practical and environmentally-friendly ways to get around; whether that’s by bus, bike, walking or a mix of options. It also includes local, real-time information like live bus and Park & Ride shuttle bus arrival times.
It also includes extra functionality such as Lit Routes which automatically gives users a walking route after dark that is not more than 5m away from street lighting and/or cctv.
For your staff, visitors and customers
By featuring the Choose How You Move Journey Planner on the ‘How to find us’ page of your website, you have a simple and effective way to show your staff and visitors how serious you are about sustainability.
You can include a link to this feature when inviting candidates for an interview, as part of the ‘Welcome Pack’ to new staff members and to people visiting your office.
The live bus times help identify potential delays and can suggest alternative, quicker routes to take the stress out of face-to-face meetings – as does the Park & Ride travel option for people travelling to Leicester by car.
