Active travel is on the rise, and at The Bike Storage Company, we’re not just witnessing this positive shift. We’re actively supporting it.
Our commitment to promoting healthier, more sustainable lifestyles is unwavering. As more people embrace cycling for commuting, leisure, and fitness, we ensure they have the necessary infrastructure to keep their bikes in top condition. That’s why we believe in the power of bike repair stations as a pivotal part of any active travel strategy.
The Growing Importance of Active Travel
Active travel, including walking, cycling, and other non-motorised transport, is becoming increasingly popular across the UK. With growing awareness of cars’ environmental impact and the health benefits of regular exercise, communities are seeking ways to encourage more people to ditch their cars in favour of bikes. Local authorities and businesses are investing in cycling infrastructure, and part of this investment should include bike repair stations.
Why Promote Active Travel?
Environmental Benefits
Cycling produces zero emissions, making it a crucial component in the fight against climate change. Promoting cycling can reduce our carbon footprint and contribute to a greener planet.
Health and Well-being
Regular cycling is an excellent way to maintain physical fitness and mental health. It’s a low-impact exercise that’s accessible to a wide range of people, helping to combat issues like obesity and heart disease.
Economic Savings
Cycling is a cost-effective transport mode for individuals and communities. It reduces the need for fuel, vehicle maintenance, and healthcare costs associated with stationary lifestyles.
