I write Travel Plans as part of my job, and always include incentives such as you describe to encourage the use of bikes (powered and non-powered) - not only making parking free but also secure, and under cover wherever possible. This is becoming more usual now, as Travel Plans are compulsory to obtain planning consent for larger developments. Many Travel Plan specialists STILL treat PTWs as an afterthought tho
Where I work, loads of ppl use motorbikes to commute, ever since we installed designated parking spaces under the building. Result
