Monitoring and Review Page 10 Annex A: Targets for each Travel Plan Objective Page 11 Appendix: Analysis of Responses to the Travel Questionnaire Page 13 Published by Midlothian Council April 2017 1 • Introduction: Purpose of the Travel Plan 1.1 A Travel Plan is a package of measures aimed at promoting sustainable travel within an organisation, a necessary component of which is a reduction in single occupant car trips (principally those that are part of the daily commute) as well as addressing car parking and car use in general. It also aims to make necessary car travel more sustainable. A travel plan is tailored to the specific circumstances of an organisation and the sites where it is based, taking into account factors such as current modal split, size and location of the organisation or buildings, number of staff employed, the number of visitors and the number of deliveries or contractors servicing buildings. Travel planning is not a one-off document; it is an ongoing process of organisational change, a dynamic process that grows and develops with time to reflect changes in staff and visitor characteristics and the requirements of the organisation implementing the plan. 1.2 This Travel Plan demonstrates how Midlothian Council has applied national, regional and local policy to its own operation, in support of transport policy across Scotland.
