Our goal is to help employees and employers to work together and start a conversation about how to make travel to and from work more active and sustainable by providing the up-to-date news and information on travel solutions that can change behaviour and benefit all.

Travelknowhow Scotland is an online resource which offers organisations across Scotland FREE, easy access to a wide variety of travel planning solutions to develop and implement workplace Travel Plans and to engage with employees in order to start changing travel behaviour within organisations. Covering travel by both staff and visitors the website offers:

access to travel planning information and links to local resources;

specialist travel planning advice;

specialist marketing advice to aid employee engagement;

practical hints and tips; and

adaptable downloadable templates aimed at providing cost effective internal and external communications.

Funded and supported by Scotland’s 7 Regional Transport Partnerships and Transport Scotland, Travelknowhow Scotland supports and contributes directly to the Scottish government’s 2045 net-zero target. Encouraging more active and sustainable travel within Scottish workplaces is going to play a crucial role in the reduction of emissions and with the introduction of measures such as the Low Emission Zones and proposals to introduce a workplace parking levy, Travelknowhow Scotland is on hand to offer Scottish employers practical advice and guidance to allow them to support and encouraging their employees to start changing their travel behaviour.

Nearly 200 Scottish organisations are currently registered on the website.
