Transport

We work closely and support where we can a number of Transport Action Groups in Dorset, some of whose members are also members of DorsetCAN. We are always open to ideas and projects that we can support.

Purbeck Transport Action Group

WATAG – West Dorset Western Area Transport Action Group

DTAG | Better transport for Dorchester

Weymouth Transport Action Group

Shaftesbury & Gillingham Transport action group

Sherborne Transport action group

Transport accounts for 16% of our Carbon Emissions, and the continued growth of private car ownership is clearly unsustainable. Working in collaboration with Dorset Transport Action Groups, we aim to promote efficient and affordable public transport for all. We contributed to the Dorset CAN Dorset Local Plan consultation submission, and to the Travel Better chapter of Zero Carbon Dorset’s “Dorset 2030” Report.

• We are supporting the 20s Plenty for Us campaign in Dorset.
• We are looking at assisting with the organisation of Car Free Days at several locations across Dorset, to raise the profile of the use of public transport and active travel across Dorset.
