Roll & Stroll
Latest alert: Have your say on cycling & walking changes in your local area.
Lockdown has been quite a journey but cycling and walking is more popular than ever.
After marking this year the Big Summer of Cycling & Walking, let’s not stop now. We're continuing to invest in creating a region that supports healthy, greener and safer travelling. We want to help you get started or keep going.
Whatever your travel plans - whether it's a cycle around your local streets or a winter walkie - we're here to help you start the adventure before you get there. There’s never been a better time to stay fit and healthy than right now - so, get your roll & stroll on!
Get going & continue rolling
You may be considering, new, returning, or been a keen cyclist during lockdown.
Whether you're rolling to work or school, or simply catching some fresh air, there's always safe and new ways to get there.
All things strolling
You may prefer walking around you local park, to your corner shop or to the station to get to work.
Wherever you're heading, there's always new and safe ways to get there on foot.
Discover your local area and enjoy a stroll.
