Local travel as it could be?
Convenient, attractive, walking, wheeling and cycling routes for local trips. Frequent, well connected public transport between towns and villages. Drivers confidently switching to electric vehicles for home and business. Real action on road safety. What matters to you?
How we’re influencing change
One result of our Walkable Tavistock initiative is our popular Walkable Tavistock map. We advocate for better public transport, including the importance of rural buses. Our occasional social walkabouts encourage car-free exploration.
We publicize and respond to consultations which affect local transport, including some planning applications. We make constructive suggestions, eg on ways to improve cycle parking in Tavistock town centre.
Get involved
We’re keen to co-operate with groups and businesses who share this vision. Whether your concern is pavement obstacles or speed limits, cycle facilities or bus stops, get in touch.
