Commercial sustainability
The schemes we run are designed for longevity utilising the highest quality assets. Working with trusted partners and small and medium-sized enterprises, we build and operate solutions for public sector ownership, aimed at delivering value for the taxpayer.
We’re currently the largest UK provider in terms of the number of bikes; with over 14,000 cycles and e-bikes pedalling around the towns and cities where we live. Our schemes demonstrate the widely recognised health and wellbeing outcomes and the positive environmental benefits that can be achieved through the introduction of cycle hire.
As such we are proud to operate the longest running scheme in the UK, London’s Santander Cycles. Not only has the scheme been running successfully for over ten years but it’s also going from strength to strength.
Over time the scheme has seen geographical expansions taking it from 315 stations to now almost 1000. The popularity of the scheme continues to grow with 2021 proving to be a record-breaking year with the most hires seen to date at 10.9million hires.
