Details

The Department for Transport appointed the Energy Saving Trust to administer the Fix Your Bike voucher scheme between 2020 to 2021.

The scheme involved the release of 400,000 £50 vouchers to members of the public to be used for cycle repair or service.

This report is an evaluation of the Fix Your Bike voucher scheme. The evaluation used interviews and surveys to assess:

  • whether the scheme succeeded in its aim of increasing the number of people cycling
  • whether the scheme prompted people to take more journeys by bike and fewer by private car
  • whether any changes in cyclist numbers or modal shift lasted beyond COVID-19 lockdown measures
  • lessons learned from how the scheme was delivered
