Report cover page SEStran People and Place Programme 2024/25 EVALUATION
One of 100 funded projects was support for Porty Energy's bike library portyenergy.bsky.social @portyenergy.bsky.social · 4mo We're delighted to have received funding from SEStran & Transport Scotland to continue our bike library & projects through 2025. 🎉🎉🚴♀️ Using part of that funding we're looking for a summer worker to look after Porty Active Travel Hub over the busy summer weekends: bit.ly/3ZGdyp1 - deadline Saturday!
Summary 1 This report is the culmination of the first year of our People and Place programme that has supported and enabled more than 100 active travel behaviour change projects across the region. These include projects across the region which fund cycle repairs, bike recycling, the purchase of new cycles, and street audits to remove barriers to people walking and wheeling. I’ve particularly enjoyed seeing the impact the funding is having and speaking to the people who have benefited. One example is when we visited FEL Scotland’s active travel hub at Grangemouth High School. We spent time talking to the pupils and teachers about the project, and I was impressed to hear about the dramatic increase they’d seen in young people cycling to and from school each day. I also loved hearing directly from the young people who had never previously cycled or scooted, but were whizzing around the playground without any fear. There have also been challenges. 2024/25 has been a transition year in which responsibility for funding management moved to Regional Transport Partnerships for the first time, so there was a fundamental change in programme governance and delivery mechanisms. This inevitably influenced programme implementation and outcomes and impacted data consistency as delivery organisations adapted to a new way of working. This report does not cover the full breadth of work completed in 2024/25, as many schools projects extended beyond the end of the reporting period so data collection and analysis was not possible prior to publication. Evidence from these projects will be incorporated into the 2025/26 programme evaluation report, providing a more complete picture of programme effectiveness. We’re pleased that this evaluation report provides valuable insights into the performance of our work in 2024/25 and identifies key learnings that will inform future programme development that we will be taking forward as we develop People and Place in 2025/26 and beyond. Finally, we’…
