WELTON - For those of you citizens of the Capital, would have heard the community "bike 2 work", active community groups who use the bicycle as primary transportation for the home and away from home or office. If in Britain there are wheels 2 Work (W2W), a government program that rent mopeds (small motor) with a light price to help residents that are difficult to get public transport. Tenants, other than workers and are students (of course already have a license).
W2W is a small part of a chain of transportation programs that are run by the British government with the theme "Creating Growth, Cutting Carbon '.
This year the government prepares the budget 560 million pounds to improve the effectiveness of transportation and W2W one of them. At least 200 moped (small bike) set up for small towns throughout the UK with about 360,000 pounds of funding from local governments. Thus, one unit rented mopeds at 8.5 pounds per week.
Chris Hodder, the representative of the British Motorcycle Federation Users (The British Motorcyclists Federation / BMF) of Government Relations said, "The government created the Wheels 2 Work is an initiative of low cost compared to other transportation programs, also shows the excess use of motorbikes in public."
UK Local Transport Minister Norman Baker said, "The money is invested wisely in the local transport initiatives are very helpful, both in terms of economy and reduction in carbon emissions. A solution 'win-win' for both local residents and the entire state."
