The National <strong>Cycle</strong> Network is a comprehensive network<br />
of safe and attractive routes <strong>to</strong> cycle throughout the UK.<br />
10,000 miles are due for completion by 2005, one third of<br />
which will be on traffic-free paths, the rest will follow quiet<br />
lanes or traffic-calmed roads. It is delivered through the<br />
policies and programmes of over 450 local authorities and<br />
other partners, and is co-ordinated by the charity Sustrans.<br />

Sustrans - the sustainable transport charity - works on<br />
practical projects <strong>to</strong> encourage people <strong>to</strong> walk, cycle and<br />
use public transport in order <strong>to</strong> reduce mo<strong>to</strong>r traffic and its<br />
adverse effects. 5,000 miles of our flagship project, the<br />
National <strong>Cycle</strong> Network, were officially opened in June<br />
2000, we will increase this <strong>to</strong> 10,000 miles by 2005.<br />
As well as the National <strong>Cycle</strong> Network, Sustrans is working<br />
on Safe Routes <strong>to</strong> School, Home Zones and other practical<br />
responses <strong>to</strong> the transport and environmental challenges<br />
we face. Sustrans' work relies on the generous donations<br />
and monthly standing orders of nearly 40,000 Supporters,<br />
and the support of charitable trusts, companies, the<br />
National Lottery and local authority programmes.<br />
