Thursday 1st August is cycle to work day promoting a healthy, cheap and environmentally friendly way to travel to work. Cycling can not only save you money and help keep you fit, but it also can help to reduce traffic congestion, improve air quality and make the city safer for residents.
Everyone is encouraged to take part, but if you don’t have a bike then the city council has partnered with Voi offering two free 15 minute rides on e-bikes throughout the city using the code CYCLETOWORKDAY.
Southampton has plenty of dedicated cycle routes including the western, eastern, northern and portswood cycle freeway. With these routes you can get across the city quickly and safely.
