two.1.4) Short description

The London Borough of Waltham Forest (“the Authority”) are seeking Tenders from suitably experienced and qualified organisations for the provision of cycle training and associated active travel services.

This Framework is being set up to provide an easy-to-use mechanism for local authorities, NHS organisations and housing associations in London and the Home Counties (the Buyers) to appoint a Service Provider(s) to deliver cycle training and complementary active travel initiatives in their respective area.

In order to meet the goal of the Mayor’s Transport Strategy of 80% of all trips in London to be made on foot, by cycle or using public transport by 2041, there needs to be a significant modal shift in the number of people cycling alongside other active travel modes. This Framework is also intended to support the growth in emerging sustainable transport modes and e-mobility services to further reduce ownership and usage of private vehicles.

The contract shall commence February 2024 and shall continue up to and including the January 2028 (“the Contract Period”).
