Sustainable transport

Northumberland County Council promotes sustainable transport under the Go Smarter banner.

Go Smarter encourages people across Northumberland to explore and use sustainable modes of transport - walking, cycling, public transport and car sharing - when travelling to work and school; making journeys greener, cheaper and healthier.

The authority supports the development and implementation of travel plans for schools, business and residential developments.

Travel plans can be developed on a voluntary basis, or can be required as part of a planning condition.
