Cycle Super Highways
Cycle Super Highways will provide safe, fast, direct routes into central London from outer London. The first two routes will open in summer 2010 with ten more being introduced as part of a rolling programme.
These new routes aim to improve cycling conditions for people who already commute by bike and to encourage those who don't. This will help cut congestion, relieve overcrowding on public transport and reduce emissions. SWELTRAC supports the development of these routes, but is also keen to ensure that attention is also given to those existing cycle routes that will link to the Super Highways.
The Cycle Super Highways project is one of TfL and the Mayor's main ways of bringing about a London cycling revolution, aimed at increasing cycling in London by 400% 2025 (compared to 2000 levels).
