Tax break proposals aim to boost cycling to work

New report by British Cycling suggests tax incentives for employees and businesses, to encourage bike commuting

People should receive 250 a year in tax breaks if they cycle to work, according to a proposal to improve public health and business productivity backed by some of the UK's biggest companies and the Paralympian Dame Sarah Storey.

According to a report published by British Cycling, businesses should be able to claim back in tax up to 100,000 in construction works such as bike parking, showers or other cyclist facilities.
