Weekly travel update in Nottingham 13 November - 20 November
________________________________________________________________________

Walking and cycling
Walking and Cycling

If you need to make a journey we encourage you to walk or cycle where possible. This will allow you to practise social distancing while you travel and minimise contact with others, helping to stop the spread of Covid-19.

Walking and cycling is good for mental health and can help us all to deal with the pandemic - plus riding for transport frees up space on public transport for those key workers who cant travel by bike.

Active Travel Fund

Nottingham City Council has today been awarded a further 2m from the Government to spend on measures that make walking and cycling easier. This will allow us to build on and improve our existing trial measures, and explore some new ones. Find out more about our proposals here. [ [link removed] ]

Free webinars for safer winter cycling

As we head into winter we know the darker nights and weather can make the thought of hopping on a bike less appealing but it doesnt need to be that way!

As part of our ongoing commitment to support cycling, we are organising a series of free lunchtime webinars in partnership with Ridewise, Sustrans, British Cycling and Love to Ride on a range of bike-related topics.

The first webinar, taking place next week during Road Safety Week, focuses on winter cycling tips. For more information visit our website. [ [link removed] ]
