Government e-bike subsidies – have your say

Posted on in Business News , Cycles News

Febikeollowing multiple stories (cited as rumours) circulated last month about a forthcoming Government subsidy scheme to encourage the purchase and usage of e-bikes, the ACT have been in discussion with several local authorities and IBDs.

As a result of these discussions the ACT would like your opinion, as a bike business, on the level of government support you would like to see for the e-bike market over the next few years.

Whilst the ACT will share the results of this survey with the Department for Transport, it should be made clear that the survey is an initiative the ACT are undertaking, not the DfT.

This survey should take around five minutes to complete and all responses will be kept confidential, meaning no information will be attributed to your business personally.

Thank you for your participation.

 

Take the survey now

 

The survey will close at midnight on Tuesday 22nd December 2020.
