What this is
A lightweight starting point — not a full assessment
Use this free snapshot when you want a rough sense of scale before deciding whether to invest in a deeper analysis. It is designed for HR, sustainability, facilities and leadership teams who need a quick indicative estimate — not a formal business case.
Free Snapshot
Quick indicative estimate using broad assumptions about workforce size, travel patterns and typical costs. Useful for early conversations and internal scoping.
Paid Commute Opportunity Report
Site-specific, de-identified workforce analysis with commute clusters, shift compatibility, staff willingness, barriers and a clear recommendation on next steps.

Workplace Commute Cost & Emissions Snapshot
Step 1 of 3 — Your workplace
Step 2 of 3 — How people commute
What are these distances? City averages reflect where employees actually live relative to typical workplaces, based on BITRE/ABS commute data: Melbourne 14.6 km · Sydney 15.0 km · Brisbane & Perth 14.9 km · Adelaide 12.4 km. Select a specific distance if your site is in an unusually central or remote location.
Step 3 of 3 — Ready to calculate
We'll estimate your organisation's current commute footprint, parking cost burden, and what a carpooling program could achieve. You can explore different scenarios interactively on the results page.
Results use Australian benchmark data including NTC fleet emissions factors, BITRE/ABS city commute distances, and indicative parking cost rates. All figures are estimates — the Commute Opportunity Report replaces these with your actual workforce data.

Carpooling in Australia — the evidence
These figures put your snapshot in context. Carpooling is already common — the opportunity is making it easy and coordinated.
