Eco Campus
Greening the College
Over the past 10 years the College has developed a number of initiatives aimed at improving its environmental position. These have included the Environmental garden at the Newton site, the Environmental Technology Centre at the town centre campus, litter picks, and the promotion of greater use of public transport to reduce car usage. With the latest introduction being the paper recycling scheme.
Transport
For several years now the College has been concerned with the impact that its activities, buildings, staff, students and visitors have on the environment. One of our main concerns is transport, as staff numbers grow so the number of car parking spaces decrease. These concerns as well as related health and pollution problems led the College to actively encourage the use of public transport. Staff are provided free bus passes if they voluntarily render their car park passes up. We are also planning to improve our cycle storage facilities and public transport information.
