Cycling in Stoke-on-Trent

Cycling benefits your health, the environment and your pocket. We want to encourage more cycling by introducing:

• on and off-road cycle routes;
• safer routes to schools;
• bus lanes;
• traffic calming and local safety schemes;
• more cycle parking in town centres;
• more workplace travel plans; and
• education and cyclist training programmes.
