Explore Medway by bike
Cyclists have miles of new routes to explore as we
officially opened a network of sporting and recreational trails
during National Bike Week.
We were awarded ?2.5million from the Central Government
Local Growth Fund, supplemented with ?300,000 from the council?s
Local Transport Plan, to improve cycling opportunities in Medway.
Existing cycle routes have been extended and cyclists now have more
than 70 miles of on-road, off-road and green cycle routes to explore.
