Sustainable Travel Employer Initiatives Funding and Tax Incentives published for employers

The City Region Deal is working to create new economic opportunities, jobs and to reduce inequalities across Edinburgh and South East Scotland. As part of achieving these objectives, the Workforce Mobility (WFM) Project is identifying and supporting sustainable long-term solutions, influencing policy and behaviour change to enable the reduction of transport barriers to employment, training, and further education in the region.

To support these activities, the WFM Project has drafted The Sustainable Travel Employer Initiatives, Funding and Tax Incentives document. This document details a set of measures and information to support employers in the promotion and investment in active and sustainable commuting of their employees. It contains detailed guidance on Fiscal Incentives and capital allowances available to employers for investment in infrastructure that supports more walking and cycling to work, and greater use of public transport by employees. This information will be updated each tax year and should be used as guidance only.
