General Commuting Advice
For employees
While we appreciate that not everybody has the same work flexibility and transport options available to them, here are some general rules to follow to achieve a more sustainable transport network if you are able to.
 |
Leave the car at home. For a smoother commute, leave the car at home and take the bustling bus, terrific train or the fabulous ferry. |
 |
Travel earlier or later. If you must drive to the office, then leave home earlier or later to beat the traffic. |
 |
Travel on Monday or Friday. Travel to the office on days that are quieter on the roads if your workplace offers flexible working arrangements. |
For employers
The Travel Choices team can partner with you to provide specific guidance to suit your business objectives for when and how employees commute to work. In the meantime, here are three simple things you can do as an employer.
 |
1. Inform. Tell employees about the transport network changes, and that they may experience delays when commuting to the office. Pass on the Travel Choices commuting advice above to support sustainable travel. |
 |
2. Be flexible and encourage employees to commute to the office on quieter days and outside the peak, where possible. |
 |
3. Lead. Model the desired behaviour by requesting leaders share how they have changed their commutes to a more sustainable travel choice. |
