Queensland Cycle Strategy

Queensland values cycling for the important contribution it makes to the development of a sustainable and effective transport system. Cycling is not just a transport issue. It has significant benefits for health, the environment and tourism as well as having positive local impacts in connecting communities.

The aim of the Queensland Cycle Strategy is to make cycling safe and convenient across the state, and encourage local governments, and communities, to support and respect cycling. The strategy also seeks to integrate cycling into government strategies, policies, standards and guidelines wherever possible, from the beginning of a project.

These phases can broadly be categorised as: issues identification, validation and endorsement. At all stages, the State Cycle Committee (SCC) has served as the reference group for development of the strategy.
