Bike to work

The Bike to Work project has significantly increased the use of bicycles for commuting to the workplace in Faenza (IT). The programme reimbursed each kilometre travelled by bicycle, tracked via the Bike to Work app. Competitive rankings using the app and a reward system for the top performer were key factors in ensuring the initiative's success. Co-financed by the Municipality of Faenza and the Emilia-Romagna Region, the Bike to Work project led to three spin-offs: one funded by a local company for its employees, another for middle and high school students called Bike to School, and a third recently adopted and entirely funded by Castel Bolognese, a municipality that also belongs to the Union of Romagna Faentina.
