Mobility Credits is a scheme for residents moving into some new developments in Coventry. Residents will receive credits to spend on sustainable travel. The credits can be redeemed for use on public transport and cycle hire, within the West Midlands area, or exchanged for cycle vouchers, which can be used to buy bicycles and bicycle accessories.
Mobility Credits are provided at no cost to the households receiving them. While the value of the credits will vary between developments, it is generally likely to be between £400 and £1,200 per eligible household.
Mobility Credits are funded by developers. They aim to provide a range of alternative transport options to residents, helping to make developments more sustainable. They act as an incentive, encouraging people to travel by public transport, walking and cycling and to reduce their car use – thereby reducing congestion, improving air quality and tackling climate change.
