Cycleways and Walkways

Cycling

Liverpool has numerous shared paths or cycleways along its streets and through its parklands.

Council is committed to improving cycling infrastructures such as shared path and missing cycle links as well as bike storage and parking facilities. Cycling is an important recreational and social activity for residents and a valid and equal first choice mode of transport.

In Liverpool’s Bike Plan 2018-2023, Council encourages residents to adopt healthier lifestyles, enjoy the natural environment and to help reduce traffic congestion.

Liverpool Bicycle Users Group

The Liverpool Bicycle Users Group (Liverpool BUG) advocates on behalf of people who ride bicycles in the Liverpool LGA. The group has an optional membership fee, which goes towards promotional material and cycling advocacy activities, however cyclists do not have to be a member to participate in their rides.

The group organises many rides within the Liverpool area or nearby, usually on a fortnightly basis. See the Bike Liverpool website or the group’s Facebook page for more information.
