Why is this important?

Having cycle repair available at work encourages staff to stay safe through regular bike servicing and maintenance.

40% of households own bikes but only a small proportion use them regularly. Repair facilities will also help persuade staff with unused bikes to get them repaired and start cycling again safely, for leisure or for work.

What might it involve?

• Purchasing and maintaining basic tools and repair facilities on-site for use by cyclists
• Organising regular maintenance sessions for those cycling to work
• Speaking to local bike shops to see what services they may already offer
• Larger organisations might partner with retailers to staff an onsite shop
