Foreword from Jug Johal,
Director of Estates & Facilities Services
Our Trust is committed to the continuous development of strategies to reduce our impact on the
environment, supporting the reduction of carbon emissions for England. Within our hospitals and
communities, our activities providing healthcare has an impact on our sustainable development agenda
and plans.
Travel forms a major part of our strategies and we recognise this area as a key function in supporting our responsibilities.
Through investment into our Travel plan, promoting the plans into operational delivery, we promote the positive impact
this plan can have on our patients, staff, visitors and wider communities. Improving air quality, managing traffic levels,
engaging with and promoting better public transport initiatives, we aim to demonstrate and support healthy, sustainable
travel modes using our plan to address our “movement strategy”.
The impact on our staff, patients and visitors through sustainable travel cannot be underestimated, and as Director of
Estates & Facilities Services, I pledge to ensure the delivery of healthcare in our community will incorporate our travel plan
objectives, integrated as a standing item within our service model, plans and strategy.
Some of these plans will include:
• Reduce car usage and in particular single car occupancy journeys
• To increase the use of public transport, walking, cycling and car sharing by staff (including outpatients, visitors and
DPOW residential development) commuting to and from work and on business travel
• Contribute towards reducing carbon emissions
• Encourage more sustainable and healthier forms of travel among staff, outpatients and visitors
• Improving staff morale and productivity
• Encourage good urban design principles that open up the permeability of the site to the more sustainable means of
walking, cycling and public transport, reducing pressure on the highway network at peak times
• To raise awareness of sustainable travel options and benefits to employees, outpatients and visitors
• To reduce the number of single occupancy private car users while carrying out work duties
• To set an example of good practice to other organisations in the Borough
• The aims & objectives will be achieved whilst ensuring that NLAG continues to deliver social, economic and
environmental objectives.

1. Introduction
Northern Lincolnshire and Goole Foundation Trust
Northern Lincolnshire and Goole Hospital (NLAG) was established as a combined hospital and
community trust on 1 April 2001 and achieved foundation status on 1 May 2007. It was formed by the
merge of North East Lincolnshire NHS Trust and Scunthorpe & Goole Hospitals NHS Trust. NLAG operates
all NHS hospitals in Scunthorpe, Grimsby and Goole.
The running of three hospitals, Figure 1.1

Cycling
Figure 2.7 overleaf shows the location of the hospital site along with 4km isochrones based on the DfT’s recommended
cycling distance (shown as the crow flies). The map demonstrates that most of the town of Goole lies within the 4km
isochrone also covering nearby towns of Howden, Hook and Kilpin also the wider more rural areas. This suggests
that cycling may a viable transport option for staff who work at the hospital and live within much of Goole and the
surrounding areas although it is acknowledged that distance is only one factor that determines an individual’s travel
choice and further exploration of the reasons why staff choose to or not to cycle to work would be needed. It was noted
during the site audit (October 2018) that the road surfacing entering the hospital grounds was
poor therefore may be a deterrent to cyclists. It was also highlighted that vehicles that are not
emergency vehicles were travelling into the site at high speed which again may deter cycling.

Additional Travel Plan Champions
Currently there are no additional travel plan champions established at each site. It is anticipated that each site
will in time have a specific Travel Plan Champion who will work with the Travel Plan Co-ordinator and Travel
Plan Steering Group in order to develop further policies and deliver specific site interventions with the aim of
encouraging and enabling more staff to choose sustainable travel modes.
194. Staff Travel Survey
The project team carried out a travel survey with staff from all three NLAG sites using Modeshift’s STARSfor online
application during September & October 2018.
The table below shows current (2018) travel to work mode along with the 2015 baseline data which was collected for the
last NLAG Travel Plan.

Whilst this travel plan mainly focuses on policies and practices that influence staff travel behaviours it is acknowledged
that visitors and patients account for more trips each day than staff trips. This section provides an overview of the results of
the visitor travel survey carried out to support the production of this travel plan in September and October 2018. STARSfor
methodology has been used to collect the results presented below.

Analysis of survey results
The graphs opposite identify that out of the Figure 5.1 Visitor Survey ‘reason for visiting’ results
105 visitors who completed the survey only 43
people were patients the remaining 62 visitors
were either visiting the site or were bringing
family members to the hospital for support.
The second graph shows that out of the same
surveys that 33 of visitors visited the site more
than 6 times in the last month. Based on the
data from 105 visitors shown above the average
visitor travels to the site 3 times per month.
In addition to the figures shown in the table Figure 5.2 Visitor survey ‘frequency of visit’ results
above analysis of the surveys also identified the
following:
• Scunthorpe hospital would benefit from
better signage as visitors/outpatients
identified that they currently find it difficult
to navigate around the site.
• It was highlighted that at the Goole site,
speeding seems to be an issue when
entering the hospital grounds as there are
no speed bumps or clear speed limits onsite.
• It was stressed by visitors that there seems
to be a limited amount of disability parking
bays at both Scunthorpe and Goole.
• Visitors requested in the comments
section that both Goole and Scunthorpe
could demonstrate better bus timetable
information on site.
• Staff are parking on the surrounding
residential streets near to all three sites
causing issues for residents living nearby.
216. Aims & Objectives
The following aims and objectives have been set to aid the commitment to sustainability and with the
intention to gain accreditation through Modeshift’s STARSfor within the next 12 months.
These aims and objectives support NLAG’s wider environmental, sustainability and social goals and build upon those
established in the previous NLAG Travel Plan (2015).
Objective A: Encourage and raise awareness of more sustainable and healthier forms of travel among staff, outpatients
and visitors
Objective B: Reduce car usage and in particular single car occupancy journeys
Objective C: To increase the use of public transport, walking, cycling and car sharing by staff commuting to and from work
Objective D: Reduce carbon and other transport related emissions
Objective E: Improving staff morale and productivity
Objective F: Reducing pressure on the highway network at peak times
Objective G: To set an example of good practice to other organisations in the health sector
These objectives were agreed and approved with Northern Lincolnshire and Goole Foundation Trust management in May
2019 and will now be taken forward as the basis for the action plan and related targets outlined later.
7. Targets
SMART targets have been developed for the Travel Plan. These target indicators are Specific, Measurable,
Achievable, Realistic and Time constrained. The targets are based on data collected both in the staff travel
survey and by comparing modal shift at similar organisations with travel plans in an attempt to ensure
realistic targets have been set.
As it is considered good practice to maintain an up to date travel plan and undertake regular reviews of progress the
following targets are set for 2021 when it is anticipated that the travel plan will be reviewed again. All targets will be
measured by staff responses to a staff travel survey to be carried out annually. Interim targets have not been set, however
if the results of interim travel surveys identify that targets have already been reached then the Travel Plan Co-ordinator
may decide to stretch the target to a more ambitious figure.

8. Travel Plan measures
The action plan is the key part of the travel plan and sets out the actions and interventions which are to
be delivered over the lifetime of the plan. The following action plan has been developed following a
review of the existing NLAG Travel Plan (2015) and analysis of the staff travel surveys and has been agreed
with the NLAG Travel Plan Co-ordinator (TPC) and Senior Management in December 2018.
The current action plan taken from the NLAG Travel Plan (2015) has been used at the basis for this revised plan noting
where actions have been complete or remain outstanding from the previous plan.
Implementation of this action plan will help NLAG work towards meeting the aim and objectives of the Travel Plan as set
out in Section 6
