When relocating to a new area, the location of where you choose to live, the mode of transport and the commuting time to travel to work, access to rail networks and airports are all major considerations. Sometimes employees do not initially give much thought to the distance, cost and time it can take to travel from one place to another in the UK whether by car or public transport.

It is not just the basic commuting distances that are involved when choosing and area and a property. Premier Corporate Relocation Services will provide employee commuting advice about the area and region, combined with the infrastructure of all the transport options available. In the UK you simply cannot just look at a map and judge the time based on distance. In some cities traffic at peak times of the day can have a real impact on the time it takes to complete a journey.

Premier Corporate Relocation Services offer advice and assistance with all aspects of commuting and we have listed below some web sites which may also be of use.
