Where can I cycle in Birmingham

In Birmingham you will find traffic free cycling routes, including canal towpaths, on road cycle lanes and signed routes on quieter roads.

More confident cyclists may also choose to cycle on larger roads, mixing with faster moving traffic.

You can cycle in Birmingham using the recognised cycling routes, and any suitably marked dual-use footway. Many of these will be served by West Midlands Cycle Hire docking stations where you can hire a bike to use on your journey.

Have a look at the map of docking stations to find the nearest one close to where you want to go.

An open source map and journey planner is available from CycleStreets. This useful tool shows cycle parking, cycle shops and other places of interest.
