Appeal over 'sustainable' traveling


         MOTORISTS are being urged to do their bit to mark a sustainable transport campaign event.
        TravelWise Week, which runs until Sunday, aims to encourage people to think about how much they travel and whether they can do so more sutainably.
In Sandwell motorists keen to get involved have two options.
        They can register for free on-line at a national website, www.liftshare.com, and make a pledge to adopt a more sustainable method of transport.
        Alternatively, they can register with the local version of the Liftshare website - www.carsharesandwell.com.
Under this scheme, drivers can register the start and finish points of their regular journeys, for example to and from work.
        They are then matched to people who can either give or want a lift, from work, home or along the route.
There is no fee to pay and people share travel costs.
        The www.carsharesandwell.com website can be accessed from home, at work, internet cafes or one of Sandwell's libraries.
