Cycle to Work Scheme

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what funding his Department provides for small businesses on employer-led schemes that encourage staff to cycle or walk to work.

Answer

Last year the Department commissioned Business in the Community to produce best practice guidance for employers on how to enable more of their staff to cycle or walk to work. This is available at https://www.bitc.org.uk/toolkit/active-travel-getting-people-back-to-work-safely/.

In 2019 the Department also revised the guidance on the Cycle to Work scheme to make it simpler for employers to offer a salary sacrifice arrangement to their employees to hire cycles and cycle safety equipment or to hire a cycle to them under an employer loan scheme.
