Journeys committee
The journeys committee is committed to enhancing the overall travel experience for residents and visitors alike, focusing on promoting accessible and sustainable transportation options while continually seeking ways to improve the connectivity and convenience of journeys within the community.
The aim of the Journeys Team is:
To encourage and assist the residents of Charlbury and its environs to transition to sustainable transportation for all of their journeys.
Its objectives are:
- Helping residents of Charlbury and its environ reduce (and ultimately to end) journeys requiring fossil fuels.
- Encouraging Charlbury Residents to make more journeys on foot, by bike and using public transport.
- turning Charlbury and its environs into pleasant places to walk, cycle – or just to be- as opposed to either being simply thoroughfares or car parks.

Car Club
Charlbury Car Club
In 2022, the Town Council asked the town what it thought of the idea of a car club with an enthusiastic response.
There are two ways car clubs work. There are traditional cars clubs like ZipCar or Commonwheels, which provide their own cars – Charlbury is too small for these schemes to be viable. There are also peer-to-peer systems, where people borrow and lend private cars via a service provider’s website or app. There is no risk to lenders – insurance and vetting of renters is all taken care of by the service provider.
You can see the Car Club Survey Results (2022) here. Since the report’s publication, the Town Council has resolved to promote any car sharing companies that are being used in the town. Currently there two cars to rent in Charlbury via HiyaCar: other schemes may be used in the future and will be promoted equally. The Town Council has agreed to encourage residents to put their car into a peer-to-peer car sharing scheme or borrow a car from such a scheme.
