At South Coast Traffic Management, we’re committed to a greener, better future for all. It’s with this in mind that we prioritise sustainable practices in all aspects of our work, from minimising environmental impact to aiding the surrounding communities. Below, you can learn more about our dedication to sustainability and discover how we give back to society.
Environmental Sustainability
Going Electric
In a significant move towards sustainability, we are transitioning to electric vehicles, as we’ve acquired two EV cars and two EV vans, all of which allow for eco-friendlier operations. What’s more, our new headquarters is equipped with EV charging points, accommodating the growing shift towards electric mobility among our staff and visitors.
Clean and Green
We’re also embracing the digital era, having digitalised our accounting processes, which is reducing paper use and streamlining operations. Looking ahead, we plan to harness solar energy by installing panels on our HQ, further reducing our carbon footprint and leading by example in the industry.
Hybrid Working
Adopting hybrid working models has not only enhanced our operational flexibility but also contributed to our environmental goals. By reducing the need for daily commutes, we’re cutting down on carbon emissions and promoting a better work-life balance for our team.
PPE and Waste Recycling
Our commitment to the environment extends to waste management, where we’ve implemented dedicated recycling bins across our premises. This initiative ensures the responsible disposal and recycling of waste, minimising our impact on landfills. We also recycle all our old PPE through our supplier, Cusack, which has partnered with a leading certified ‘Zero to Landfill’ provider.
Social Sustainability
Supporting Local Charities
Our support for The Lighthouse Charity underscores our commitment to giving back to the community, offering our employees a reminder of the invaluable support available in times of need. We also proudly support Julia’s House Children’s Hospice, dedicating resources and manpower to their annual Christmas Tree collection and showcasing our commitment to local causes and the well-being of children in hospice care.
Community Initiatives
Our community spirit shines through our sponsorship of Dexter Sports YFC, as we help to foster local sports and youth development. We also take time for the smaller yet just as meaningful gestures. For example, our team recently provided a local family with free hire of traffic lights, as their son, who loves traffic lights, is battling a brain tumour. These initiatives reflect our deep connection with and commitment to our community.
