A number of secure cycle parking facilities will be installed around Warwick for Sunday's (August 7) Commonwealth Games cycling road race.

Managed by Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) the cycle hubs will "underpin the aspiration that the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games will be the public transport and active travel Games".

These sites will be available for anyone with a bike, including those who may not own a suitable cycle lock.

Visitors and residents looking to come along to spectate – ticketed or otherwise – at the road races on Sunday can use the following locations to store their bikes:

  • Warwick National Cycle Route 41 – St Nicholas Park (Emscote Road entrance), CV34 4QY. 5.30am - 6pm.
  • St John's House Museum, CV34 4NF 7.30am - 6pm
  • Warwick Westgate Car Park, CV34 4DE 7.30am - 6pm
  • Warwick Hampton Road Car Park, CV34 6HU 7.30am - 6pm

Cllr Wallace Redford, Warwickshire County Council portfolio holder for transport and planning, said: "Sunday promises to be a spectacular day of road cycle racing through the historic streets of Warwick in front of an audience of many thousands of spectators.

"In keeping with the spirit and aspirations of these Games, I hope to see many of our visitors over the weekend choosing to ditch the cars and use active travel alternatives such as walking or cycling as together we strive for a Warwickshire that is sustainable now and for future generations."
