Clackmannanshire Council Travel Plan - Smart Travel

Clackmannanshire Council as a local authority has a responsibility to lead by example, in order to encourage local businesses and residents to adopt a sustainable approach to travel. Therefore the Council is in the process of developing a travel plan for all Council staff and visitors.

The travel plan will address all modes of transport for visitors, commuting and business journeys and is in no way intended to be anti-car. The overall aim of the travel plan is to demonstrate the impact each individual journey has on the environment, community and transport network to allow everyone to make an informed choice regarding transport in the Clackmannanshire area.

Staff travel surveys are continually undertaken to assess attitudes of staff to options for travel plans. The results are available to download from the Documents and publications section below.

A number of measures have been introduced to encourage staff and visitors to travel by more sustainable modes, including:

Pool bikes for staff
Cycle to Work - bike leasing scheme for staff
Cycle shelters for staff and cycle racks for visitors
Showers and changing facilities for staff
Try Commuting Bike for staff
Umbrellas available for staff to borrow at lunchtimes, for meetings and site visits
Walking and cycling maps
TripshareClacks - car sharing database for staff and the public

Please note not all of these facilities are available at every Council office.

The following information packs are available to staff,

for a copy of any of these the packs or for more information on these topics please email smarttravel@clacks.gov.uk specifying which pack you require or your specific question. The number of packs are limited and will be issued on a first come first serve basis.
