Greater Manchester has secured £4.9 million of Government funding for a new project that will kickstart a revolution in cycling in the region. The investment will be used to launch a new project that will make cycling to work a more realistic option in a number of key commuter destinations. The Greater Manchester Commuter Cycle Project, designed to increase the number of people cycling to work, will provide almost 650 secure cycle parking spaces at a series of new cycle centres across Greater Manchester, and a further 450 spaces at a number of new cycle compounds. Alongside this, a programme of local cycle information and training will also be offered to break through the barriers that currently hold people back from commuting by bike.
