Southampton by Bike
The City Council is developing an integrated transport system and cycling is a key component in encouraging more sustainable ways of traveling. Substantial investment is underway in the City's cycle network and facilities. This is being progressed with key partner organisations, interested groups and individuals via the Southampton Cycle Forum. This leaflet shows the location of cycle routes and crossing facilities in the City with links to adjoining areas.
Bike Security
Always lock your bike when you leave it, even if only for a minute. A good quality D-shaped shackle lock is better than a padlock or chain. If possible lock your bike by the frame and wheels to a bike stand or other suitably robust street furniture and leave it where it is highly visible. Remember to remove any 'quick release' items before leaving your bike. It is worth getting the best lock you can afford. Look on packaging for products that have been tested against attack and are resistant against a determined thief for five minutes. 'Property Marking' your bike can act as a deterrent to thieves and will help the police get it back to you: local cycle dealers and the police are able to 'Property Mark' your bike. They will give you a 'Recorded Cycle' form so that you can note details (make / model, colour) of your bike - it is useful to take a photograph as well. A number of companies offer security marking linked to a computer database. Make sure that the company you use follows the National Cycling Forum's code of practice for the security marking and registration of bikes. For advice please contact:

Why Cycle
Cycling is good for your health, helps protect our environment and is a relatively inexpensive way of getting around the City compared to the private motorcar. Cycling can increase your strength, stamina and level of aerobic fitness, dramatically lowering the risk of coronary heart disease and strokes. A number of clinical studies have shown that regular cyclists enjoy fitness levels equivalent to those of individuals many years younger! Using your bike is not just good for you - it benefits the environment as well. Cycling is quiet and pollution free. More than 70% of all journeys made in the UK are less than eight kilometres (five miles) and about half are under three and a quarter kilometres (two miles). With practice, most people could easily ride these distances.
Pedal cycles and buses only (Cyclists are permitted to use bus lanes in Southampton except the right turn from Bitterne Road into Lances Hill)
What do I need?
It is a legal requirement that you have approved front / rear lights and a red rear reflector fitted to your bike if you plan to cycle at night, or when visibility is poor. Consider using more than one rear light when riding at night. Fluorescent and reflective clothing and accessories could save your life. Head injuries are the most common type of serious injury that cyclists suffer. A cycle helmet is a sensible investment and could prevent serious injury in the event of an accident. Choose a good quality helmet that conforms to British Standards or equivalent. Take time to ensure that it is comfortable and adjusted to fit correctly.
CYCLE LANE
Route to be used by pedal cycles only
Training Courses
Southampton City Council offers cyclists the following training opportunities: Basic training for children over the age of ten Advanced training for Secondary School pupils Adult confidence building sessions Family cycling. Additionally, there are off-road public practice sites at Riverside Park, and The Common where parents can take young children to help them learn basic control and riding skills. For more information and advice please contact Southampton City Councils, Road Safety Office 023 8083 3240 Email: road.safety@southampton.gov.uk

There may also be a bleeping sound to assist the visually impaired

Carriageway Markings
Toucan Crossing
A Toucan crossing is provided for cyclists and pedestrians and is associated with a cycleway. A green cycle indicator is provided alongside the green man, which can be mounted either on the far side of the crossing like a Pelican, or on the nearside like a Puffin Toucan crossings have a green bike symbol as well as the green person symbol used for pedestrians. Cyclists can use Toucan crossings but please remember that pedestrians use them as well - keep your speed down and take care. When the green man / green cycle is illuminated, it is safe to start to cross the road.

You must always give way to people using a zebra crossing and be prepared to stop for pedestrians waiting to cross. Wait for traffic to stop and look both ways before crossing Always dismount when using a zebra crossing.
Pelican crossing
Cyclists must wait until all pedestrians have cleared the crossing. Always dismount when using a Pelican crossing so as to move safely across the road. The red man / green man indicator is located on the far side of the crossing. When the green man is illuminated, it is safe to start to cross the road. There may also be a bleeping sound to assist the visually impaired.
