A Travel Plan is a package of actions designed by a workplace, school or other organisation to encourage safe, healthy and sustainable travel options. By reducing car travel, Travel Plans can improve health and wellbeing, free up car parking space, and make a positive contribution to the community and the environment. Every Travel Plan is different, but most successful plans have followed a structured process in their development:
The term Travel Plan has now largely replaced Green Transport Plan as the accepted UK term for a concept which first emerged in the USA during the 1970s (as Site-Based Transportation Demand Management) and subsequently transferred to the Netherlands in 1989 (where the terms Company or Commuter Mobility Management were applied).

Famous quotes containing the words travel and/or plan:
“We can travel longer, night and day, without losing our spirits than almost any persons we ever met.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“I have always hated biography, and more especially, autobiography. If biography, the writer invariably finds it necessary to plaster the subject with praises, flattery and adulation and to invest him with all the Christian graces. If autobiography, the same plan is followed, but the writer apologizes for it.”
—Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
