Travel Policy Consultation

  • The consultation on the proposed new Travel Policy in Haringey is closed

What happens next?

After the Council’s Cabinet has considered the results of this consultation and agreed the policy it is anticipated that the new travel policy will be put into effect during the autumn of 2016. The results of the consultation will be available on this page.

Travel Policy Consultation

We asked for your views on our proposed new Travel Policy, which covers travel arrangements to facilitate attendance at schools, colleges and services for all eligible:

  • children and young people with a special educational need, and/or disability
  • adults in receipt of social care and support

The policy is intended to provide clarity for parents/carers and service users in a wide range of circumstances, and to ensure that those with particular and significant needs are appropriately supported.

The Policy is divided into two main sections: Children and Young People (0 to 18 years); and Adults (18+) in receipt of social care and support.

You can download the Draft Haringey Travel Policy 2016 (PDF, 488KB) here.

Why did we consult?

It is our practice that when there is a change in policy that affects our residents, we consult them at the earliest opportunity.

We want to ensure that all of our service users are aware of what the council is able to provide or assist with in terms of travel.

We consulted on three key proposals in the new travel policy:

  1. The independent travel model
  2. The assessment process
  3. Paying for travel arrangements

We also wanted your views on the policy as a whole.

By giving us your views, we were able to make sure we had a greater understanding of what you consider important.
