School Travel Plans

Our many years’ experience working with local schools to develop and implement their travel plans has helped the schools increase walking to school levels as well as gain accreditations and national awards. Our ST:EPs (Safe Travel: Enabling Pupils and Schools) gives school communities the tools and support needed to embed safe, active, sustainable travel in their school culture.

Travel to Work

We can help you and your workplace to make journeys to and from work easier and greener for staff - whether for health, environmental or commercial reasons. Our 'Brightwayz for Business' services for workplaces range from organising one-off green travel events such as a fun smoothie bike session for a health and wellbeing event to helping you to develop and implement accredited travel plans to an excellent level using the Modeshift STARS framework.

Large Site Travel Plan Management

We offer contract travel plan services for large sites, whether employment sites, public venues or both such as Rushden Lakes, one of our long-standing clients. Using the DfT-backed Modeshift STARS (Sustainable Travel Accredited and Recognised) framework we support our clients to develop, deliver and achieve recognition for excellence in site travel planning.

NHS Travel Plan Support

Our travel plan support for NHS and other healthcare settings helps achieve net zero targets as well as a safer, healthier local community. We can help your healthcare setting develop and implement a site travel plan to enable safer, greener, healthier travel options for staff, patients and visitor. Kettering General Hospital has already benefiting from our expertise in this and was the first national award winner of the Modeshift Travel Plan Award for a Healthcare Setting.

Cycling and Walking Plans

Helping to create better walking and cycling infrastructure across our own county is a top priority for us at Brightwayz as it benefits us all. We are passionate about seeing the development of an excellent county-wide network. Our Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP) engagement consultancy services mean we can play a practical part in this. We worked with Kier, WSP and Pell Frischmann to develop the three LCWIPs for the main urban areas. The next challenge is refining the routes with good community input so they can be built!

Developer Travel Plan Support

As our county's housing and commercial developments grow, it is essential people who will be living or working in them have a good choice of safe, green, active transport options. We are here to support developers to help them connect to and understand the local community's needs so they can put in the measures that matter.

Travel for Community Organisations

Community organisations such as charities, trusts and social enterprises often have a strong sustainability-related mission and values. Achieving good health outcomes, mental well-being, increasing equality of access and eco goals can be furthered by promoting active travel options. But we know you are on a tight budget with other pressing priorites! Our travel plan services for community groups includes support to help find the funding for us to help you in ways that complement your other aims too.
