Details
The national e-cycles programme was launched as a pilot to gather evidence to inform decisions on future funding. The objectives of the programme were to:
- accelerate the uptake of e-cycles
- encourage the replacement of motor vehicle journeys with e-cycle trips
The final evaluation report presents findings on the programme’s implementation, impact on participants and overall value for money.
Data used for the evaluation was collected through a combination of sources, including:
- qualitative interviews
- monitoring information
- participant surveys
- GPS trackers
The report was prepared in February 2024 by Steer after the pilot ended in December 2023. The national e-cycles programme was funded by the Department for Transport, supported by Active Travel England and delivered by Cycling UK.
