My officials have engaged with various stakeholders to discuss measures to support shared mobility. Discussions focused on how the Government can begin implementing commitments in the Transport Decarbonisation Plan, such as supporting zero emission car clubs and improving vehicle occupancy rates. We will soon publish a Local Authority Decarbonisation Toolkit that includes guidance for local authorities on car clubs and shared transport.
