Kent Connected’s ambition is to improve your journeys in Kent. They are passionate about saving you time and money all the while helping to improve the environment and your health by offering you alternative ways to travel.

Just by making a few small changes to the way you travel can make a huge impact on the environment by lowering pollution levels and reducing congestion. Rather than sitting in traffic on your commute to work why not hop on the bus to help save the pennies or jump on the bike which in turn can also help to maintain a healthy weight.

Whether you are planning your route to work, a day out with the family or a short break, Kent Connected can help you plan your journey while making smart travel choices that will help to create a greener future and healthier population for Kent.
