Traffic volume reduction on Addenbrooke's hospital
The intervention is aimed at reducing the number of single occupancy vehicle trips to Addenbrooke’s hospital campus. The intervention consisted of a combination of measures, such as investment in car sharing and car pools, promotional events and infrastructural changes. The impact was significant: staff car use fell and bus travel, walking and cycling increased.

Transfer of physical activities into everyday
One hundred people with lack of physical activity took part in a voluntary activity programme that lasted 12 weeks. Fitness checks and interviews were performed at the start, midway and after to make fitness measurable. They were coached by a mobility and health adviser on achieving their health and motion programmes. 75% measurably improved their fitness and body fat values and 11.6 car kilometres could be shifted per person per week.
