Little Changes

DfI

Welcome to the new Department for Infrastructure podcast ‘Little Changes’

Each episode we’ll be taking a closer look at what ‘Little Changes’ we can all make to our everyday journeys to make them more sustainable. And that might mean walking, wheeling or cycling for more of our short every day journeys, accessing public transport when we can, or indeed when it’s time, making that change from petrol or diesel to electric vehicles.
