The transition to zero-emission transport requires more than electric vehicles, it needs the infrastructure that makes sustainable mobility practical, accessible and attractive.

At Trueform, we develop a range of low, ultra-low and zero-emission solutions designed to encourage active travel, support cleaner transport and improve the quality of our urban environments.

From EV charging canopies and mobility hubs to cycle hubs, digital information solutions and sustainable active travel infrastructure, our solutions help cities create better connections while supporting the move towards cleaner, healthier streets.

As communities continue to tackle air pollution, congestion and the need for more sustainable transport, the right infrastructure can make a real difference.

When people can navigate a town or city centre with confidence, they’re more likely to explore further, discover independent businesses, visit local attractions and choose walking over short car journeys.

For councils investing in regeneration, active travel and economic growth, effective wayfinding can help connect destinations, increase footfall, improve accessibility and strengthen local identity.

In our latest blog, we explore why wayfinding should be viewed as essential infrastructure rather than simply signage, and how thoughtful design can help unlock the full value of town and city centre investment.

As Bus Users UK Catch the Bus Month shines a spotlight on the importance of bus travel, it's the perfect time to look beyond the vehicle itself and consider what truly encourages people to choose the bus.

Every journey begins at the bus stop. Before a passenger boards, they've already formed an opinion of the service based on the quality of the waiting environment. Is it safe?
Is it accessible?
Is there somewhere comfortable to wait?
Is information available?
Does the infrastructure inspire confidence?

These first impressions matter.

While investment in cleaner fleets and more frequent services is essential, high-quality roadside infrastructure is equally important in shaping passenger perceptions and encouraging long-term ridership. Modern bus shelters, digital passenger information, intelligent wayfinding and well-designed waiting environments help create a public transport experience that people want to use.

Better roadside infrastructure delivers benefits that extend far beyond the bus stop:
• Improves passenger comfort, safety and confidence.
• Makes public transport more accessible and inclusive for everyone.
• Encourages greater use of sustainable travel.
• Supports stronger connections with walking, cycling and rail.
• Enhances streetscapes and the wider public realm.
• Reinforces confidence in the quality and reliability of the transport network.

At Trueform, we've spent decades designing, engineering and manufacturing passenger infrastructure that helps local authorities and transport operators create welcoming, connected and future-ready transport networks.

Because increasing bus ridership isn't just about putting more buses on the road, it's about creating an experience that begins the moment passengers arrive at the stop.

This Catch the Bus Month, let's recognise the important role that high-quality roadside infrastructure plays in building confidence in public transport and encouraging more people to make the switch.

As towns and cities look for practical ways to reduce emissions and encourage more sustainable travel, even everyday infrastructure can play an important role.

Trueform’s environmental bus shelters are designed to do more than provide shelter. Made using recycled materials, our solutions can incorporate EV bus charging, wind turbines and green/living roofs, helping to reduce CO₂ emissions, improve air quality and create valuable habitats for insects and wildlife.

By combining sustainable design with functional urban infrastructure, we’re helping communities encourage public transport and active travel while creating healthier, more attractive places for people to live and work.

Sustainable infrastructure. Smarter mobility. Better places.

At Trueform, we believe that investing in public transport is about far more than infrastructure, it's about creating connected, accessible and sustainable communities.

That's why we're proud to support Bus Users UK as a Lead Campaign Partner for Catch the Bus Month 2026. As manufacturers of passenger transport infrastructure, we understand that every bus journey begins before a passenger steps on board. The quality of the waiting environment, the accessibility of the stop, the availability of information and the confidence passengers have in the network all influence whether people choose to travel by bus.

Encouraging greater bus use is essential to reducing congestion, improving air quality, supporting local economies and helping achieve long-term sustainability goals. But increasing ridership isn't just about introducing new buses or more frequent services, it also requires high-quality infrastructure that makes public transport safe, comfortable, inclusive and attractive for everyone.

Through decades of working with local authorities and transport operators, we've seen first-hand how modern bus shelters, mobility hubs, passenger information systems and wayfinding can transform the passenger experience and encourage more people to choose sustainable travel.

Supporting Catch the Bus Month reflects our commitment to helping create transport networks that work for people and places, today and for future generations.

Because better infrastructure doesn't just improve journeys, it helps build stronger communities.

As part of Campaign for Better Transport Better Transport Week back in June, our Trueform teams took on the challenge of leaving their cars at home and using public transport to travel to our Hayes offices, helping us promote more sustainable and active travel.

As an Official Sponsor and Partner of Campaign for Better Transport’s Better Transport Week, we were proud to support the conversation around cleaner, greener and more accessible transport, while rewarding our teams for getting involved!

Employees had the chance to win prizes including Fitbits, bikes and train or bus passes, with awards recognising our Change Champion, Active Travel Promoter and Better Transport Supporter.

It was fantastic to see colleagues embracing public transport, sharing their experiences and showing how small changes to everyday journeys can make a difference.

As EV adoption continues to grow, the conversation is shifting from simply installing charge points to creating charging infrastructure that is reliable, resilient and designed around the user experience.

EV charging canopies play a far greater role than protecting drivers from the weather. They help safeguard valuable charging equipment, reduce exposure to the elements, support operational reliability and create safer, more welcoming charging environments. Well-designed infrastructure also enhances the visual appeal of charging locations, encouraging greater confidence in the transition to electric mobility.

At Trueform, we believe the future of EV charging depends on infrastructure that is built to last. Investing in high-quality canopies isn't just about improving appearance, it's about protecting assets, supporting long-term performance and delivering a better experience for every driver.

Read our latest blog to discover why EV charging canopies are becoming an essential part of future-ready charging networks. https://trueform.com/news/how-ev-charging-canopies-improve-charging-reliability/ #0
