Key Fact

5% of journeys to work in Swindon are made by bicycle,

compared to an average of 3% across the

rest of the UK.

Swindon is a great place to cycle!

The majority of the borough is quite flat, and there’s beautiful countryside on our doorstep, which can be explored via the off road National Cycle Route 45. Research from Cycling UK found that Swindon has a high rate of cycle commuters yet is one of the safest places to cycle in the UK, thanks to the extensive network of off road paths.

About Swindon Travel Choices

Swindon Travel Choices is funded through the Government’s Local Sustainable Transport Fund and aims to make it easier for those living or working in Swindon to get around without a car.

As well as improving infrastructure such as paths, lighting and routes, the scheme is also providing advice and information about travel choices.

This map has been produced with the help of Swindon Bicycle User Group and Sustrans.

www.swindontravelchoices.org.uk@swindon_travel facebook.com/swindontravelchoices

National Cycle Network Route 45

National Route 45 is the main north – south route in Wiltshire connecting Salisbury with Cricklade via Avebury, the Chiseldon Timberland Trail and Swindon.

Most of the route is open and signed, though not continuously with gaps on Salisbury Plain. Beyond Cricklade the route will eventually run all the way to Chester via Gloucester and Shrewsbury.

In the area around Swindon much of Route 45 follows the path of the old Midland and South West Junction Railway which closed on 10 September 1961.

Routes 45 and 482 are maintained by Sustrans and are regularly patrolled by a team of volunteer rangers who also organise workdays.

For more information about volunteering please contact Lew Lawton on 07962 118849

For more information about the National Cycle Network visit www.sustrans.org.uk. You can use the online mapping service to see routes anywhere in the UK.

Time, distance and calorie calculator

Swindon Travel Choices is trying to encourage people that live 25 minutes’ walk or cycle from their workplace to leave their car behind and take the exercise instead.

The table on the right demonstrates that many places in the Swindon urban area are within the 25 minute zone. We have based the information below using the “quietest streets” option with a cycling speed of 10mph (this is an unhurried speed on the flat). If you are fitter and take busier roads,

the times can be a lot shorter.

Swindon

Highworth is a market town located about 6 miles north-east of Swindon town centre. It is often described as the “gateway to the Cotswolds”, and is notable for its Queen Anne Style architecture and Georgian buildings dating from its pre-eminence in the 18th century.

Cycle links between Swindon and Highworth are limited, although some improvements have been made since 2011 along the A361.

Swindon Town Centre is rapidly changing with phased development taking place at Kimmerfields. Cycling is prohibited in the pedestrianised core of the town, but cycle parking has been strategically located on the entry points to the zone, and it’s possible to wheel your bike through the town.

The Brunel and Fleming Way cycle park provide 24 hour, swipe card access, undercover cycle parking (with CCTV). Located near Wharf Green in the heart of the town centre and in Fleming Way car park, off Islington street pick up a leaflet at any bike shop for details.

South of Swindon Route 45 travels through Coate Water and over the M4 at the “curly wurly bridge”, where the Route picks up the old railway path into Chiseldon.

There are some on road stretches through Chiseldon (on quiet roads only) and then it turns right along The Ridgeway to Avebury.

From Avebury you can continue south on Route 45 or, alternatively, follow Route 403 east to Marlborough or west to Chippenham.

National Cycle Network Route 482 Chiseldon to Marlborough Railway path

From Chiseldon you can also go south along Route 482 which follows the old railway line further to Marlborough. This is mostly cycle path.

At Marlborough the path meets Route 403 which goes east, to Savernake Forest and Great Bedwyn, or go west to Avebury. The route to Avebury combines with Route 45 to make a good circuit for a day ride.

Coate Water car park to Chiseldon Approx. 2.5 miles 10 – 20 minutes

Chiseldon to Marlborough Approx. 8.5 miles 1 – 2 hours

A trip to Marlborough by car would cost the average motorist £4.95. It’s free to pedal!

North of Swindon Route 45 cuts through Oakhurst to Tadpole Lane, where you pass the Swindon and Cricklade railway at Tadpole Bridge.

After about one and a half miles the route re-joins the old railway path to the historic town of Cricklade, before the route continues to South Cerney, the gateway to the Cotswold Water Park.

For a longer ride, you can continue cycling on Route 45 through to Cirencester.

Oakhurst (Tadpole Lane) to Cricklade

Approx. 4 miles 20 – 35 minutes
