Sustrans Scotland is collaborating with a number of active and sustainable travel organisations to launch a new website to promote active travel.

Way to Work is a new, free, online tool for workplaces in Scotland. Officially launching on Tuesday 28 May, the Way to Work website helps workplaces in Scotland support staff to travel by foot, bike, public transport or car share.

Way to Work showcases information from nine active and sustainable travel organisations, linking directly to their own websites for more information. These organisations offer a range of support to encourage employees to walk and cycle to work, or to commute or do business travel in a more sustainable way. The website collates funding, training, support, awards, challenges, competitions and travel planning from across Scotland into one place.

It also features inspiring case studies and the latest active and sustainable travel news.

With funding from Transport Scotland, Way to Work is delivered by Sustrans Scotland in partnership with the Workplace Sustainable Travel Delivery Group:

Grace Martin, Director, Sustrans Scotland, said:

“The new Way to Work website offers a one stop shop for workplaces to access sustainable travel news and offers. Making it easier for employers and employees to find information that can make an impact at their workplace.

“Following exercise you arrive at work more alert and ready to face the day ahead. Evidence shows that active travel can have a positive impact on your physical and mental wellbeing. We know that people who travel actively to work are fitter, healthier, happier and less likely to take sick days.”
