NABERS Commuter Transport

The NABERS team is developing a Commuter Transport rating to measure the environmental performance of an organisation’s commuter travel and encourage the use of more sustainable modes of transport.  

Employee travel to work has local impacts, such as adding to congestion, as well as regional and broader impacts. The rating aims to clearly communicate the transport performance of the occupants of a workplace on a scale of 1 to 5 stars, and in so doing set a standard in this area that will encourage more sustainable modes of transport.

The NABERS Commuter Transport Rating will allow companies to track and measure their success in achieving their workplace travel plan goals and promote their green credentials.

The NABERS Commuter Transport rating will not be restricted to offices, but will be available to any workplace that operates during normal business hours such as a surgery or school.

Development of the Commuter Transport rating is underway, and due for release in early 2011.  For more information, or to get involved in the development of the rating, email NABERS.
