Norwich’s Green Aspirations: How You Can WiN in a Sustainable City
Commuting
E-bikes and e-scooters are not the only electric alternatives that Norwich residents are using; First Bus in Norwich have begun the process of replacing their diesel vehicles with 70 electric buses. This means that 60% of bus journeys through the city centre will be electric!
Whilst Norwich does provide alternative and greener ways to travel, it’s sometimes difficult to know what’s the best way for getting from point A to B. Luckily, you can utilise the Travel Norfolk’s journey planner. The planner gives you a variety of options, providing you with information such as your amount of carbon emissions, steps you’d have to take on foot, and how much it will cost to travel from one point to another. Not to mention how to get to your destination! It’s a fantastic tool that helps you take control of your carbon footprint.
The Norwich City Council recently held an open consultation on their development of the climate action plan. Hearing from the public on what they think is important in helping to improve Norwich’s green credentials. They plan on further consultation later this year. Norwich City Council is also part of the Norfolk Climate Change Partnership, a group composing of Norfolk Councils to effectively tackle climate change through energy plans and greener transport solutions.
