Help Transport for Greater Manchester secure £20million to improve cycling infrastructure

Transport for Greater Manchester – Cycling – Pledge.

A cycling revolution is within Greater Manchester’s grasp. A revolution that shows we’re as serious about cycling as cities such as Berlin, Amsterdam and Copenhagen.

But we need your support to make this vision a reality. Pledge your support right now by clicking the link on this page.

Greater Manchester is bidding for up to £20 million of government investment, to be spent over two years, to make cycling safer and easier.

Most of this investment will be in a series of more continental-style, largely segregated, cycle routes within the heart of the conurbation, together with the delivery of a number of cycle and ride stations.

£20 million’s not a lot, compared to the huge amounts spent on motor traffic, but it’s a start.
