Cycling is a great way of commuting to work, getting to school or something to try in your spare time.  The City Council is working hard to promote cycling and make cycle routes better for all of us across the city.  We organise events, promote cycle training and work with schools, universities and organisations to encourage cycling through our TravelWise campaign.  The number of cycle routes in the city is growing and cycle parking is being installed in many locations.  Cycling is a cheap and healthy way to get around our city.

Merseyside's Local Transport Plan 2006-11 is a countywide, £230m delivery programme of transport investment and service improvements.  It aims to give Merseyside a safer, sustainable, efficient and integrated transport network, accessible to all.  Cycling has a key role to play in meeting these aims through the provision of a convenient, easy to use cycle network.
