WEBINAR - Leicester Transport Plan and Workplace Parking Levy

Leicester City Council is consulting on a new Draft Leicester Transport Plan which sets out the Council’s transport vision, ambitions and priorities for the city over the next 15 years. The council is also exploring the potential role a workplace parking levy could play in supporting delivery of the transport plan and initial thinking is also being consulted on.

A new Transport Plan for Leicester is needed to respond to the many issues facing the city including enabling city economic and population growth, tackling climate emergency and air quality challenges, improving health and physical activity levels and recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic.

WEBINAR - Net Zero Carbon - Case Studies

WEBINAR - The Future of the Workplace

The COVID pandemic has forced companies to adopt new ways of working. They have had to reimagine their work and the role of offices/workplaces in creating safe, productive, and enjoyable spaces for employees.

But what does this mean as we move forward? Will previous ways of working be adopted again or have employers realised that these new ways are here to stay? And what does this mean for the physical offices and working spaces. Technology has enabled different working methods so what does the future hold?

WEBINAR - Net Zero Carbon - Policy and Playbook
