Slough Borough Council’s ‘Better by…’ team will help change the way people choose to travel to and from school, making walking, cycling, car sharing and public transport a real choice.

Our objectives are to:

  • encourage parents and staff to switch from single occupancy car use to more sustainable modes to reduce congestion around the school site
  • increase cycling and walking to school to improve personal health and wellbeing of pupils, parents and staff
  • provide opportunities for learning to ride a bike and road safety awareness
  • promote sustainable travel opportunities offered by grant funding and other initiatives available for schools in Slough.
