NETS ambition to be the world’s greenest mass transit provider

National Express Transport Solutions ambition to be the world’s greenest mass transit provider

quarter of the UK’s carbon emissions come from the transport sector. Pre-pandemic, cars & taxis generated 55% of domestic transport emissions in the UK

In spite of this, coaches are already a more sustainable way to travel with less greenhouse gas emissions per passenger kilometre than other modes of transport

The fundamental issues of congestion and pollution will simply not go away. With demand for transport expected to increase by 30% by 2030, there is an ever-present need for a reduction in carbon emissions.

A modal shift is the single most important driver of reduced emissions and congestion. At National Express Transport Solutions, our ambition is to be the world’s greenest mass transit provider. The National Express Group has committed to a Net Zero target of Scope 1 and 2 Emissions by 2040click here to find out more
