What is Wheels to Work

Wheels to Work (W2W) schemes provide an innovative way to overcome transport barriers, with schemes offering individuals their own transport solutions for a short period, until a longer term solution can be found. Solutions offered include loan of mopeds, power assisted bikes and in some cases help to meet car running costs.

About this Toolkit

This toolkit is designed to help all those who are involved in setting up or managing a W2W scheme, whether that is individuals, groups, networks, partnerships or other organisations.

It covers all of the stages of delivering a scheme, from first ideas, assessment of needs, developing a partnership network and delivering the scheme.

The toolkit is presented in five step-by-step sections:

  • Pre-delivery inspection;
  • Start the engine;
  • On the road;
  • Keep on moving;
  • Nuts and bolts(details on schemes and useful reference material).
The guidance in this toolkit is based on information provided to us by Wheels to Work schemes that are already up and running. We have been able to learn from their experiences in operating the schemes over the past ten years, and hope that this toolkit will offer good practice guidance to others.
