SCHOOLS and businesses are being encouraged to apply for a grant that would help their employees become greener travellers.
Lancashire County Council's TravelWise team can provide funds for the installation of cycle racks and shower facilities.
The scheme has already awarded grants to three organisations and has more to give away.
A spokesman said: "People often say that they would be more likely to travel to work by bike if there were facilities for them to lock up their cycles and get changed after.
"We have already awarded our first grants and will be monitoring the success of the schemes.
"We are now looking for more schools and businesses to come forward and take advantage of our offer."
