Quote:quote:My own travel involved 220 miles of car driving.Most conference venues are in reasonably-sized towns with railway stations - did you consider going by train?
Just today I have planned attendance at a meeting by a group of 3 people from my office, at a venue 120 miles away. I checked out journey times and cost for car (all in one car) and train travel. Journey times were similar, train cost about 20% higher than car cost (mileage).
I decided on travel by train because a) it should be more reliable b) staff (or at least the driver) will arrive fresher and c) it will use less fossil fuel.
