Cycle Exeter

What we are building

Much of the work has focused on improving links to schools. The emphasis has been on high quality shared use cycle/walkways giving parents the confidence to allow their children to cycle to school.

Other priorities have included links to employment areas such as Marsh Barton, Sowton and Pynes Hill, links to the city centre, progress on the Exe Estuary Trails and cycle parking facilities around the city.

As of April 2008 we have completed over 60 separate infrastructure schemes.
