Sustainable Travel

Following the implementation of the 10 year travel plan published in 2007,  the University has produced a revised 5 year Sustainable Travel Plan 2010 - 2015 . The objectives of the travel plan are to:

• improve the choice of transport options and facilities available to users of the Exeter campuses travelling to and from the University, and between its sites;
• reduce the local, national and global environmental impact of the University’s travel;
• encourage the use of, and promote the health and wellbeing benefits, of utilising more sustainable means of transport;
• encourage more sustainable ways of working;
• reduce the impacts of travel, associated with the University, on the local community.

Information about the facilities we have in place, current initiatives and future proposals  are contained within these pages as well as the annual Travel to Work Tally

The Travel Plan was reviewed (download the Travel Plan Review Reportby Devon County Council in June 2009).

Video conference

Video conference technology can be used instead of travelling to events and meetings.  This not only reduces the impact of travel but makes more efficient use of staff time. View the IT pages for full details on how to set up a video conference.
