The Cycle to Work Alliance has conducted this research project to gain a better understanding of the health and environmental benefits of the cycle to work scheme and the motivations that have driven demand from the users of the scheme, and the employers who offer it.

The Netherlands have a tradition of high bicycle usage and a long history of research on effective policies for promoting cycling.
