Why work with us

The HITRANS/Sustrans partnership has benefited both organisations by enabling each to tap into the others' expertise, funding resources and contacts. It has helped both bodies advance their respective priorities.

We provide you with solutions

A trusted delivery partner and a strong advocate for active travel, we have a lot of expertise you can draw on.

We’re grounded in communities

Your project will have the best possible chance to be a success if you involve the local people in its design, delivery and maintenance.

We can work with you to build community consensus and support by delivering community-led street design.

Walking and cycling is what we do

We work exclusively on active travel projects. You'll enjoy the benefits of working with well-connected people who truly understand this complex landscape and have the skills to navigate it successfully.

Supporting you to make the case for change

Navigating the evidence base and making the business case for walking and cycling is the starting point for achieving change.

We've been helping clients develop active travel strategy and policy for decades.

We walk and bike the talk

We're a charity, so we can dare to dream big and be a critical friend at the same time. 

As custodians of the National Cycle Network and with 40 years of experience behind us, your investment in walking and cycling will be proven to be an efficient and effective use of funding.

We engaged Sustrans to help us develop a vision for Bermondsey Street because of their track record in engagement, and they have definitely delivered. The Sustrans team has been out there on the street in all weather engaging with local residents, businesses and visitors. So we're very confident that the recommendations that come out of the work will be well-founded and powerful.
