The rapidly increasing cost of fuel and the need to cut down on polluting exhaust fumes, which contribute to climate change and illnesses such as asthma which are caused by poor air quality, mean we should all be thinking about how we get around.
Walking or cycling to work 'active commuting' not only saves you money, it's a healthy way of making sure you get enough daily exercise too. When you are using your car there are many ways to be more sustainable when doing so, which can also save you money.
Alloa has frequent local bus services to most parts of Clackmannanshire and Stirling. Why not try leaving the car at home a couple of days a week, relax and let someone else do the driving, and the short walk to and from the bus stop is great exercise too.
See our cycling, wheeling and walking friendly paths for more information on National Cycle Network routes within Clackmannanshire.
