ID 5294321 - DfI - Active School travel Programme 2024

Description

DfI, in partnership with PHA, seeks to commission a new programme which will encourage and support more children to regularly walk and cycle to school. This new procurement will aim to draw together various strands of work currently undertaken by each body such as active travel programmes supporting communities and workplaces. The scope of this contract invites the design, provision and delivery of a programme of co-ordinated sustainable travel to school activities which will result in more children cycling, wheeling, scooting and walking to school more safely and more often. The programme will support schools to develop a culture of active travel within the whole school, which will be sustained after the lifetime of the programme. It will secure an increase in awareness of all participants of the benefits and challenges of travelling to and from school either as pedestrians or cyclists and support behavioural change to be more physically active throughout the day. The contract will also develop and deliver a programme of both walking and cycling skills training to increase the competence levels of all participants and better equip participants to travel to school safely by sustainable modes and provide increased opportunities for demonstrating the health and well-being benefits of active travel.
