This table is for all business travel that is not done in company owned vehicles. This can include where employees use their own transport or public transport to travel from site to site, to meetings etc and then claim expenses (not including employee commuting). It includes distribution that does not take place in company owned vehicles. Distribution distances are generally recorded up until the point of transfer of ownership.
It is likely that there won’t be such accurate figures for vehicle type in this section so there will probably be more ‘average’ cars.
Employee travel on public transport
For public transport the data that you need to enter is in passenger km. This means that the journey must be multiplied by the number of employees that completed it.
http://www.travelfootprint.org/journey_emissions - this website can be used to generate distances between two stations. Select mode of transport as rail, don’t choose and option for travel mode detail or passenger detail. Then press enter and below there should be a distance figure. Just add up the figures for all the train journeys and then input the data into the appropriate cell. This website also has an option to calculate bus and London underground distances. You can use the distances on the car section for the coach row.
For flights use the above link and follow the same instructions. Where class of travel is not known just use average. The 9% uplift that is applied to all figures is due to indirect flight paths, delays and circling etc.
The section can also be used for distribution. For distribution use the tables for HGVs and van freight. The calculations in the van freight table differ from those in the van table because they take into account the weight that the van is carrying and the impact that this will have on carbon emissions.
