My Department’s Workplace Travel Plan encourages staff to use sustainable transport when:

- travelling to and from work, and

- conducting business on behalf of the Department

Participation by staff in the Cycle to Work scheme was facilitated initially under this Plan before the operation of the scheme transferred to Peoplepoint at the National Shared Service Office in 2016. The costs listed were upfront costs, subsequently recouped as provided for under the scheme.
