In the last three years the Travel Choices team has worked with over 800 businesses, and provided over 30,000 employees with travel advice. Over one hundred travel grants have been distributed totalling over three quarters of a million pounds.
Members of our Business Travel Network are seeing positive changes in staff travel behaviour and saving money on business travel. This support has proved to be particularly valuable for businesses relocating in Greater Manchester.
Statistics, after the intervention from TfGM, have shown an 11% reduction in staff who drive to work every week whilst 8% of employees changed from driving to a more sustainable mode.
To find out more on how we helped GM businesses please visit the case studies below.
