Cardiff Cycling Campaign

Cardiff Cycling Campaign fights for safer cycling in Cardiff. Alt:Cardiff spoke to senior member, Ken Barker, about the group’s work.
The new shopping centre, St Davids 2, is a current issue CCC is campaigning about. CCC feels that it would worsen cycling conditions and destroy vital bicycle routes. Mr Barker explains;
“St David’s 2 forces cyclists onto highly-trafficked roads with cyclist-hostile multi-lanes and complex junctions. In doing so it deters less confident cyclists from coming into the city centre, so counters increased cycling policy.”
Cardiff Cycling Campaign has been active since 1988. It campaigns and lobbies Welsh Assembly Members and Cardiff Councillors. It’s also part of Cardiff Council’s Cycling Liaison and of Cycle Campaign Network UK.
The group’s 250 members are updated about campaigns and issues affecting cyclists in Cardiff through use of a magazine and website. Members also attend monthly meetings.
