Your Travel
HOW DO YOU CURRENTLY TRAVEL?
We all make journeys without even thinking about it, we nip to get the paper on Sunday or go to the shops at lunch time but do we consider how we make that journey? Many people jump in the car without a second thought but is driving really the best way to get there?
Do you want to spend money on more exciting things, and feel healthier and less stressed? Then consider swapping the car for just one journey a week, you will be surprised at how much of a difference it can make!
If you consider some of the journeys you make, you may find that using the car actually takes you longer to get to your destination. Walking, catching the bus or using your bike could be quicker. Did you know you can walk a mile in less than 15 minutes? If you’ve got a bike, you can cycle 2 miles in just 10 minutes!
Consider the following:
- How do you get to work?
- How do you go to the shops?
- How do you get the kids to school?
- Do you get time to keep yourself fit and healthy?
- Where do you go at weekends and how do you get there?
- Is there anything you want to do but don’t due to travel or time limits?
Plan ahead
Planning a journey is something we rarely do. We all know how easy it is to jump in the car, but we don’t often know what the local bus routes are, or the best routes for cycling into town.
So instead of taking that car, plan ahead! Finding out routes and times has never been easier! The following sites can give you all the information you need to know!
