Annual Travel survey’ in ‘Sutton Connect’ – Green Travel District area is now live.

We would like to advise an ‘Annual Travel survey’ to understand how people travel in ‘Sutton Connect’ – Green Travel District area is now live.

‘Sutton Connect’, is building a Green Travel District in Walmley, Minworth and Reddicap. That will mean it’s easier and more pleasant to walk, wheel, cycle and use public transport to get where we are going.  When more people make these choices, we make a healthier, safer and more productive community, and we reduce pollution and congestion for everyone travelling in the district as well.

This annual survey feeds into Sutton Connect Board who bring together a partnership of businesses and community organisations, working with Birmingham and Sutton Councils to make it easier to travel for everyone - https://www.birmingham.gov.uk/suttonconnect

You are also welcome to take part in completing this survey – on this link https://snaponline.wmca.org.uk/s/mw3tr9 or by using this QR code below:-
