1-to-1 journey advice consultations
Our team will provide a 1-to-1 travel advice consultation, either over Teams, phone or in-person. We can tailor advice to your needs but our standard process is usually:
- You will be asked to share outline details for your requirements, including your start point postcode (usually home or school location), usual travel times and any other requirements you have such as mobility issues.
- Our team will prepare a draft journey options report using these details, including a comparison table of times, cost and other factors. We will also signpost various support services available to you such as free taster bus tickets, subsidised bus passes, free electric bike loans and free cycle confidence/safety training.
- We will then arrange a short 15-20 minute appointment with you to take you through your journey options. These appointments can be run over Teams, phone call or in-person, depending on your preference.
- Following your appointment we will make any necessary amends to your report based on our conversation, and share your final report by email.
