If you work within 1.5 kilometres of the two superhighways routes which run through Merton, Wandsworth, Lambeth and Southwark (A3 , A24) or Barking and Dagenham, Newham , Tower Hamlets to City (A13, B126), you may wish to alert your employer to a cycling package offered by TfL . It includes a choice, or combination of, cycle parking/bike maintenance/ cycle training. It is effectively an offer of the items (parking/training/bike maintenance) rather than cash and requires a commitment to an evaluation. The initial step to express an interest in the package and the rest follows. The text below is on the LCC website.
Transport for London is offering cycle parking, training and maintenance to workplaces located up to one and half kilometres from Superhighway routes 3 and 7 (Barking to Tower Hill, and Merton to Southwark). The packages could be worth up to £5000 for an organisation with 250 people or more.
While the chief target is organisations with 50 employees or more, LCC understands that smaller organisations that share a building or courtyard can put in a joint application.
LCC is encouraging members to register their workplace’s interest promptly via the website www.tfl.gov.uk/roadusers/cycling/14120.aspx . The scheme is due to run throughout 2010, but there is limited amount of funding
