Our projects
Cargo bike pool
Want to lug shopping, kids, plants, gardening implements, furniture, recycling or just about anything else the zero-carbon way? We have two Gazelle Cabby Cargo Bikes free to use to all! They'll carry up to 75kg of cargo or two kids up to age seven. Available to try at most Keep Palace Pedalling events, email us at contact@cptt-transport.org.uk if you'd like to borrow one.

Keep Palace Pedalling
Got a bike in need of a little TLC? Want to learn how to carry out basic maintenance tasks for yourself? Or perhaps you're a bit of an expert who can help others restore their trusty steed in exchange for great coffee and good karma?
Come along to our Keep Palace Pedalling stall at the Food Market and get fixing. Watch the calendar for upcoming events or contact us via the CPTT Transport Facebook Page if you'd like us to arrange another event, or want to get involved. We'll often have cargo and electric-assisted bikes at the stall for tryouts too. 
Play streets
Street play events are a great way for kids and communities to experience people-friendly streets one Sunday a month. We're pioneering Play Streets in Croydon borough in 2014. |
Sustainable travel and carfree resources
Crystal Palace has great transport connections, but sometimes it's a case of knowing where to look; the TfL journey planner is great, but it can't provide the whole picture - for example, the excellent additional train connections accessible with the aid of a folding bike. If you're thinking of cutting down on car trips or going car-free but not sure how to deal with supermarket shops or family days out, we're here to help. For advice on car-light and car-free travel, email us at contact@cptt-transport.org.uk

Brainstorm
Our inaugural event was a brainstorm held at the AGM in 2013. People were invited to submit ideas on how to make travel in and around Crystal Palace sustainable, healthy and enjoyable. Here is what they came up with. See anything that takes your fancy? Get in touch and help make it happen! Or perhaps you've got an idea of your own? Maybe we can help it become a reality. Drop us a line or come along to one of our Open Meetings to discuss it.
