Active travel
Around 50% of car journeys made in Scotland are under two kilometres. By choosing to walk, cycle or scoot instead you could save on fuel costs as well as improving your own health.
The Active Travel Hub Kilmarnock enables anyone who lives, works or studies in East Ayrshire to choose walking or cycling as a way of travelling around for short local journeys. If it's not far, could you leave the car?
To find out about the latest activities and events, follow the Active Travel Hub on Facebook and Twitter.
Liftshare
Liftshare links drivers with passengers so you can share costs, reduce your travel impact on the environment, and have someone to chat to on your journey.
