World Car Free Day: Leave the Car at Home

On 22 September, we’re supporting World Car Free Day by encouraging people to leave the car at home and choose cleaner, healthier ways to travel.

World Car Free Day highlights the benefits of reducing car use and embracing alternative forms of transport, helping to create safer streets, cleaner air and more sustainable communities.

Could you go car-free for a day?

Instead of driving, consider:

  • Walking
  • Cycling
  • Using public transport
  • Car sharing where necessary

Even leaving the car behind for just one day can help reduce traffic congestion and emissions while giving you an opportunity to enjoy a more active journey.

The Benefits

  • Better air quality
  • Reduced carbon emissions
  • Improved physical and mental wellbeing
  • Less congestion on our roads
  • More sustainable communities

This World Car Free Day, challenge yourself to rethink your journey and discover how easy it can be to travel differently.

One day. One change. One positive step towards a greener future.
