BUSINESSES in York can get help with parking problems and their employees’ travel options, thanks to the iTravel project.
The chance to trial a new electric vehicle is also on offer for companies which take part in iTravel’s workplace travel planning scheme.
Last year more than 1,500 employees at workplaces like the University of York, Shepherd Group, Aviva and Nestlé, all used the service.
It will launch with a business breakfast on Thursday, at the Best Western Monk Bar Hotel, and will offer employers grants to improve on-site facilities like cycle parking, electric vehicle trials and the offer to promote sustainable travel to staff.
There will also be one-to-one advice on their travel options to work and incentives to help them try a more sustainable or active mode of travel, and help to find practical measures to encourage staff to choose more sustainable ways of travelling to work.
To book, email David Short, iTravel York programme manager, on david.short@york.go.uk
