Facilities

Once you get where you are going you’ll want to be sure you can park your bike safely. Cycle stands have been installed across the city centre.  Most of these are plain Sheffield-type stands, so it’s always wise to bring your own lock.

If you want to cycle in the city centre but feel you live too far to bring your own bike, think about travelling in by public transport and using a hire bike to get around. View scratchbikes for details.

Support

Cycle Newcastle

Newcastle is making big improvements across the city for cycling. 

With £5.7M from the government’s Cycle City Ambition Fund, a dedicated cycling budget and major improvements to the city centre for pedestrians and cyclists, the city is determined to create a cycling culture across the city where everyone can get on their bikes. 

Interested cyclists and organisations work with the council through the Newcastle Cycling Forum and keep up to date through a cycling e-newsletter.  Find out more at the council’s cycling webpage at www.cyclenewcastle.co.uk
