Personal Travel Planning

Planning your journey can be time consuming. It is much easier to get in your car and let Google maps direct you to your destination. By doing so however, you could be spending more time and money than necessary. This is why as your Travel Plan Coordinator, we can provide each resident with a free Personal Travel Plan upon request, to help you choose more sustainable travel choices travelling from your home in Knights Hill.

What is a Personal Travel Plan (PTP)?

A PTP provides you with all the information you require on your travel options, to and from a destination. We include active methods of travelling such as walking, cycling, public transport and car-sharing where applicable. These options are shown in comparison to the car journey you make.

Each travel mode analysed by the PTP will show you:

Journey distance
And the estimated CO₂ per passenger for each alternative travel mode.
Duration of journey

Why a Personal Travel Plan?

Our personal travel planning service will save you the time to look for an alternative mode of transport. Our PTP is the one place to go to that shows you everything you need to know with various modes of transport. Looking for the quickest walking route? Or a quiet cycling route? Or cheaper public transport options?

It is free for residents of Knights Hill, so why not email your start / end locations and arrival / departure times to us and we will investigate your sustainable travel options! Email: [email protected]

Why would this benefit you?

Journey planning is key. Sometimes we don’t know how much money we are spending just on travelling to work alone, or how much money you could be saving by just changing your habit slightly. Little by little, you are also contributing to helping the environment and your own health.

‘Google can do it for me’

That is true. However, Google can not calculate the most cost-efficient option for you or show you the best public transport option. Smarter Travel Limited are specialists in sustainable travel planning, and so we are always in the loop about various travel vouchers and discounts that are available for residents.

Google also does not consider the planet’s health or yours. We believe that even if it does not change your habit overnight, it can at least get you to rethink the way you travel.
