Sustainable Travel

Travel by students and staff generates a portion of the University’s Scope 3 Carbon Emissions. To support the reduction of these emissions Coventry University actively encourages all staff and students to choose low carbon, healthy and sustainable modes of transport.

Cycling

Staff and students can book cycle lockers through the Service Hub. Cycle awareness and maintenance events also take place throughout the year.

Eligible staff can access the Cycle to Work scheme, a government-backed salary sacrifice scheme that helps spread the cost of a bicycle and safety accessories.
