Pool cars, car clubs and taxi sharing
Even when there is no alternative to using a car or a taxi, there are still ways to save money and reduce the impact on the environment.
Taxi sharing
Encourage staff to taxi share for meetings. This may mean an employee may not need to bring their car into work, or even that they do not need to own a car at all.
Pool cars and car clubs
Introduce pool cars, hire cars or join a city car club. The City Car Club currently operates in Edinburgh and Glasgow and Carplus is working in Dundee and Aberdeen to develop car clubs in those cities too. There are also community car club projects being established in Anstruther, Dunbar, Fintry, Isle of Bute and Mallaig
