New Cycle Routes in Warwickshire

Warwickshire County Council's Cycling Strategy within the Local Transport Plan 2006-11 focuses on developing cycle networks in the five main towns in the County (Leamington Spa, Warwick, Rugby, Nuneaton and Stratford-upon-Avon) and working with Sustrans to complete the National Cycle Network within Warwickshire. New cycle routes are also developed as part of the Safer Routes to School project.
