Our journey to net zero

Transport is the largest emitting sector of greenhouse gas emissions, producing 27% of the UK’s total emissions in 2019.

We are on a mission to reduce not only our own carbon footprint but also that of the people who use our services.

Here is what we have achieved so far:

• Promoting greener travels by optimising our booking and operation processes in partnership with Padam Mobility

• Digital demand responsive transport service in Cranleigh and Farnham delivered on behalf of Surrey County Council.

• Collaboration with Clipper Automotive on a project to convert our diesel buses to electric.

• Electric vehicles 3 and 4 funded by Surrey County Council.

• Winner in the Sustainability Impact and Smarter Transport categories of the CREST23 Business Awards.

• Developed charging infrastructure at base in Wormley.

• Delivery of our second electric vehicle.

• ‘Reducing our carbon footprint’ is stated as a priority in our 2023-28 business strategy.

• Our first electric vehicle joined the fleet in 2022.

• Finalist in the Smarter Transport category of the CREST22 Business Awards.

• Introduction of technology to improve route planning and reduce mileage.

Award-winning

In October 2023, we were honoured to receive a sustainability impact award at CREST23, Surrey’s only green business awards.

The Sustainability Impact award for businesses with a turnover of over £1-million, was awarded in recognition of how we consistently improve people’s lives through our day-to-day business practices, and our commitment to reducing our carbon emissions.
