THE TRAFFIC GROUP SUSTAINABILITY

Welcome to The Traffic Group Sustainability site, our opportunity to showcase our commitment to our staff, our partners, our community and the environment.


Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a fairly new term but its ethos has been at the heart of every Traffic Group business for many years. Ensuring our business goals are aligned with social and environmental responsibilities has never been a checklist item, it is a culture that has been cultivated over time and underpins our core success which allows reinvestment in more and more proactive measures. Whilst we strive for growth, this is to be more than just market-share, it is the improvement of sustainable practices, an expansion of community support and a transition beyond environmental neutrality to tip the balance of positive innovation.

Community Responsibility

We are thrilled to share the news that MAV’s ANPR technology is being used in Bristol’s Low Emission Zone since summer 2022, which is bringing significant environmental and social benefits to the local community. By monitoring vehicle emissions and enforcing compliance, our ANPR cameras are playing a critical role in reducing air pollution and promoting a healthier environment for the community of Bristol.
