After my appointment as one of the first recognised Travel Plan Coordinators in Cornwall (at Enys Road, Camborne) the first excited resident has moved in!
The new Welcome Pack was well received by both clients and Cornwall Council and I now await the residents applications for their three month bus pass and cycle voucher to encourage their sustainable travel needs!
Just got back from a great initiative to put much needed housing at the top of the political agenda, although much to my disappointment no politician or prospective candidate actually attended – perhaps they will go to the glamour one in London on the 17th March!
I urge everyone to get behind this project www.homesforbritain.org.uk and make it your first question when the electioneerers come knocking over the next 79 days. There are 27 events across the country as the battle bus ‘Betsy the Bus’ travels from Cornwall to London so try and make the one near you to show your support.
I have been appointed as one of the first recognised Travel Plan Coordinators for a residential site in Cornwall! I shall be looking after a combined development between Kier Living and Sanctuary Housing for a mixed-tenure site of 90 dwellings in Camborne. This involves the delivery of a ‘Welcome Pack’ for each new residents home and ensures that they and the local authority have the security of someone looking after their sustainable travel needs!
Eden’s ‘hotel’ ProjectEden are looking to provide a much needed hotel at their wonderful Eden Project in Cornwall and asked me to provide their transportation documentation including Travel Plan!
Delegates for conferences and holidaymakers alike will now, subject to planning consent, be able to stay on site and commit to the ethos of green travel. Janine Kelk, Eden Project Travel Plan Coordinator, will monitor and support the future Travel Plan. Green holidays in Cornwall are a step closer!
