Cycling in Liverpool
With flat terrain and low levels of car ownership, Liverpool is ideal for cycling. Cycling is a quick, healthy and pollution free form of transport.
The cycle routes go through beautiful Victorian Parks, the historic waterfront and also link to the National Cycle Network for routes to North Wales, Hull and beyond! We have a university route that links the city centre to the student halls and our most successful route yet- the Woolton Cycle Route.
The City Council works hard to promote cycling and make cycle routes better all over the City. In recent years we have doubled the number of cycle routes in the city and have added cycle parking to popular locations.
