What did the business think?
On the impact on staff. "The support we have
received has been far reaching and I have been
really surprised by the impact of the initiative.
I didnt imagine that it would be so easy to
convince people to change the way they travel to
work. Amazing what a bit of promotion can do!

• On the business benefits.
• "There have been business benefits from the
  travel plan - we send people half way across the
  world, so it's important for us to emphasise our
  green credentials. One additional unexpected
  benefit is that cyclists get to work on time,
  since journey times are easily predictable.Chris
  Parrott, Director, Journey Latin America
