Cycle A-way: Cycling UK's guide to published cycle routes
Background
Cycle A-way was published in 1992, then again in 1996. Since then information has continued to be collated, but not widely published as the information was continually changing. However, the opportunity to include Cycle A-way on the Cycling UK website now means that information can be kept more up to date, and therefore be a more valuable resource.
Designated cycle routes means those routes established by local authorities and others over the years in contrast to the Cycling UK's library of Information & Touring sheets provided mainly by members for the exclusive use of members.
Information is listed under :
- Countrywide - publications covering more than one country.
- England, Wales and Scotland - publications covering more than one county.
- By county - Information is listed under the county in which the majority of the route occurs, with cross-referencing to other counties where appropriate.
The table below lists the areas and counties, when the last update occurred.
If you know of any information that is incorrect, or of any leaflets not included, please do let me know.
