Bath walking and cycling networkThis map has been developed to help you travel around Bath and the surrounding area by foot, bike and public transport. Each grid on the map overleaf represents an average of 10 minutes walk or four minutes cycle ride, showing just how quick it is to get around under your own steam. However, do allow additional time for the occasional hill.

Two new bridges across Millmead Road and Monksdale Road, two tunnels that run 100m under the surrounding hills, and a spectacular viaduct, transport users from close to the city centre into the surrounding countryside and back again.
