The Cumbria Tourism Podcast

The options (and benefits) for going car free


Listen Later

The Cumbria Tourism team are full of ideas on the best ways to travel car free. In this episode we speak to Project Officer Amanda Shaw about her work on the Go Car Free campaign and the potential benefits to businesses.

We then put these ideas into action by taking the podcast on the road. Joining Sustainable Tourism Officer Gemma Procter on a bus trip through the Central Lakes, we visit businesses in Hawkshead and Coniston, and discuss the latest updates on the Three Valleys project.
