The Middlesbrough Cycle Centre is the only secure town centre cycle parking facility in the Tees Valley and is committed to promoting cycling in Middlesbrough by providing free, secure, indoor cycle parking along with showers, changing facilities, lockers and an information centre. Members, now totalling over 450, can leave their cycles safe and secure while they go to work or go shopping.
The Cycle Centre delivers guided rides, cycle maintenance sessions and accredited road safety training. The information centre provides route and touring maps, cycle guides and other information to enable riders to access routes to work and for leisure activities throughout the Tees Valley.
Improvements to the existing network of cycleways, along with the introduction of new routes linking the Tees Valley, confirms Middlesbrough's commitment to encouraging more people to use cycling as an alternative, sustainable form of transport.
The Cycle Centre is managed by Middlesbrough Environment City in partnership with Middlesbrough Council. The Centre is a partner in the Middlesbrough Healthy Town programme.
