Transport representerer en av hovedkildene til klimautslipp. Bil er et vanlig fremkomstmiddel for å komme seg til og fra jobb. Sykkel som daglig transportmiddel utgjorde i 2011 kun 4% av traffikandelen i Norge.

I tillegg til miljømessige fordeler, er sykkel som transportmiddel også økonomisk lønnsomt for bedrifter, i tillegg til å gi helsemessige gevinster for den enkelte.

Denne studien /pilotprosjekt vil finne og teste insentiver som får ansatte til å skifte til sykkel som transportmiddel til og fra jobb i praksis, og måle mijøeffekten av dette. Studien vil bli gjennomført i to faser. Fase 1 skal kartlegge dagens reisemønster og identifisere insitamenter som motiverere ansatte til å benytte sykke til jobb. I fase 2 skal disse insitamentene testes i utvalgte bedrifter som er med i prosjektet.
