WESTTRANS are offering a FREE online journey planning tool to hotels across West London

We are delighted to announce a free and no-nonsense service for hotels in the West London area interested in improving transport arrangements at their premises which could be the first step towards gaining accreditation with the Green Tourism Scheme.

WESTTRANS' best practice guidelines (.pdf, 3427Kb) are accompanied by a comprehensive package of support which includes the use of a free online journey planner which is aimed at improving the accessibility of hotels by non-car modes.

Why a journey planning tool?

An increasing number of businesses across the UK are understanding the importance of enabling their customers, staff and other visitors to access their premises by different modes of transport and the journey planning tool achieves exactly that.

By highlighting the different local travel options available to hotel visitors the tool encourages more sustainable travel behaviour which in turn reduces the environmental footprint of your business. This is a long-term goal, but at a more immediate level it means a greater footfall from increased accessibility and which gives your business a competitive advantage.

To sign up your hotel to use the journey planner tool then email the name of your hotel, address, contact details and parking costs to WestTransTravelPlans@ealing.gov.uk or call 020 8825 9635
