Stagger Work Times
I think it's fair to say that a large majority of the workforce in Bristol start and finish work within the same 2hour window. This results in a large amount of us wasting time sat around in queuing traffic, crammed of overcrowded trains or buses and racing around to get to work on time.
I can't understand why there is a pressure for everyone to start or finish work at similar times, would it not be more productive to have start and finish times staggered allowing us to spend more time being productive at work and enjoying Bristol with our families?
I think it would be beneficial to encourage major employers in Bristol to stagger there start and finish times so that we can even out the load on our roads. It could be possible to achieve this to offer employers discounts in rates or other perks for being part of this scheme.
Why the contribution is important
-Reduce the pressure on our crowded transport including roads, trains and buses whilst avoiding discouraging visitors and workers with congestion charges, one way systems etc.
-Help with workload for emergency services during rush hours.
-Increase employees productivity and well being.
-Make it more appealing for people to return to work in Bristol.

This may be something that will become less of a problem with more people working flexibly with new technology and working from home.
