Welcome to Cycle Colchester

We're making Colchester an even better place to cycle, so why not get on your bike and see what we mean? As an official Cycling Town, we have £4.2m to spend on creating a much improved cycle network while encouraging people to take to their bikes.

As well as new and improved routes, we're offering training for children and adults and events and activities to highlight the benefits cycling can offer you.

Cycling makes sense!

It's low cost, convenient, healthy - and it's carbon neutral.

“I hadn’t cycled for years, but couldn’t resist the reduced prices on offer through the national Cycle to Work scheme. Cycling is a real timesaver for me, especially as I bought a power assisted bike, and the panniers mean I can carry work files and shopping easily too. I’ve always walked a lot, but the bike comes into its own for journeys of more than a mile.”
