From the BBC» A trail map outlining the "best way" for residents and visitors explore the Cotswolds without a car has been launched.
The map has been produced by Gloucestershire Community Rail Partnership following reports of high volumes of traffic in some towns and villages.
Pulhams Coaches and Great Western Railway (GWR▸ ) also contributed to the map's production.
The free map is available at Moreton-in-Marsh station, on the 801 Pulhams bus service, and can be downloaded from the Gloucestershire or Oxfordshire Community Rail Partnership websites.
Using Moreton-in-Marsh station as a focal point, it highlights popular walks, cycling routes, bus connections, and rail links in the Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, and Warwickshire Cotswolds.
The hop-on-hop-off 801 bus, which collects passengers from Moreton-in-Marsh station, connects them with the wider area, stopping at Stow-on-the-Wold, Bourton-on-the-Water, Chipping Norton, Andoversford, Charlton Kings, and Cheltenham.
A video has been produced to focus on car-free access to some of the most popular spots.
Bicycle and e-bike hire is also highlighted on the map for people who want to visit the area on two wheels.
Hannah McDonnell, executive director of the Gloucestershire Community Rail Partnership, said the initiative promotes "responsible tourism, as well as sustainable and accessible travel".
"The Cotswolds has so much to offer, and we want people to be able to experience it in an environmentally responsible way."
Area director of Pulhams Coaches, Alex Chutter, said the map shows the "fantastic" public transport connections.
"We're committed to providing comfortable and convenient travel for all, and this initiative encourages people to leave their cars behind," Mr Chutter said.
