Richmond upon Thames is planning to host an annual Cargo Bike Fair, following the success of its inaugural event in June 2025. The Transport and Air Quality Committee decided in November 2025 to make the fair an annual fixture, aiming to promote cargo bikes as a sustainable transport option for residents and businesses.
The Our Bike community cargo bike scheme, launched in May 2022, provides 10 cargo bikes for hire at various locations across the borough. Cargo bikes have gained popularity in Richmond as an alternative to cars and vans for local deliveries.
