The UK Government has announced a £108 million funding package to support active travel initiatives across England, reinforcing its commitment to increasing cycling and walking nationwide. The funding will be directed towards a combination of cycle training, school engagement programmes, and community-based initiatives designed to encourage more people to choose active modes of transport for everyday journeys.
While much of the focus is on behaviour change and participation, the success of these initiatives ultimately depends on the availability of high-quality, practical infrastructure. As more people are encouraged to cycle, the need for safe, accessible, and secure facilities becomes increasingly important in supporting long-term uptake.
For local authorities, developers, and organisations, this presents an opportunity to consider how existing and future schemes can be enhanced to meet growing demand. Alongside new routes and connectivity improvements, the provision of well-designed cycle parking solutions plays a key role in creating environments where cycling is both convenient and viable.
As funding begins to translate into real-world projects, a coordinated approach that combines engagement with infrastructure delivery will be essential. Ensuring that end users have confidence not only in where they can cycle, but also where they can securely store their bikes, will be critical in achieving lasting behavioural change.
Falco continues to support projects across the UK with the design, manufacture, and installation of durable cycle parking solutions, helping to deliver infrastructure that aligns with both current needs and future growth in active travel.
Falco has been a family company with its own production site for over 70 years. Sustainability was in our DNA from the very beginning and this is reflected within our complete range of modular cycle parking and shelter products, all designed with full circularity in mind.
All products ranges are contemporary and durable, typical of a Falco product. Falco has been at the forefront of the cycle parking and street furniture market and has built up a renowned reputation for manufacturing products that exceed in both design and durability.
Falco’s operations have supported the Circular Economy for many years, simply manufacturing products with environmentally friendly products, that can last for decades and at the end of the product life can be 100% recycled and manufactured back into a brand new product.
