Cycling is a healthy, non-polluting and efficient travel choice. The Council’s aim is to encourage more people to choose cycling for everyday travel by making this a safer, more attractive way to get around the Borough.

Cycle facilities are important in the promotion of cycling. Through the Local Transport Plan, the Council is working towards a safe and convenient network of cycle routes to cater for a wide variety of journeys. They are also working with partner organisations to ensure that cycle parking is provided at key destinations such as: town centres, local shops, hospitals, leisure centres, railway stations, schools and workplaces.

The Council also offer cycle training Bikeability courses to school children aged 8 to 14 years.
