Between August 2006 and February 2007, 68 people in Lundby,Göteborg, took place in a travel coach project. The aim was toleave the car behind and to walk, cycle or take public transportat least three times a week. Following the project, the numberof participants who drove to work every day had decreased from25 to 2. The number of people who cycled or walked to work atleast two days a week increased from 18 to 49. All the participantsbelieve they will continue with their new travel habits.The participants’ contribution to negative environmental effectshas decreased considerably now that their travel habitshave changed. The average emission of nitrogen oxides perperson on work-related trips decreased to one-third, whilethe average emission of carbon dioxide virtually halved.The project and project evaluation have been documentedin Swedish in the Traffic & Public Transport Authority’s bulletinno. 6:2007 on the travel coach project in Lundby.SWECO VBB.
