Sustainable bus and rail travel
Travel with us and help save the planet. Per person and per kilometre, travelling by bus and rail releases significantly less greenhouse gases than travelling by car. Car travel emits around five times more CO2 and plane travel emits over seven times more.
And if you take your bike with you, you can continue your journey in an environmentally friendly way.
Leave your car at home and save money
Avoid high fuel costs and parking charges by leaving your car at home more often. If you stop using your car entirely and switch to bus and train, you can also save a lot of money on running costs.
Lean back and relax instead of driving
Enjoy the view out of the window or use this extra time to read or to check your emails. You don’t need to worry whether you still have enough energy to drive home after a long day at work, how long you’ll be stuck in traffic or what unforeseeable traffic conditions you may encounter. This allows you to relax and reduces traffic in town centres!
