Sheffield is the fourth largest city in England by population. Although hilly, it is compact and has few major trunk roads. The City has a developing strategic cycle network consisting of off-road cycle tracks, some on-road cycle lanes, bus lanes and traffic-calmed and 20mph zones and maximising the use of the city's river valleys. The council is developing a strategy for implementing a default 20mph speed limit in residential areas. The "Heart of the City" project, encompassing the route from the railway station up to the City Centre and including the Winter Gardens and Peace Gardens, has been commended for high quality design and access for all. The Cycle Ring Route, running parallel to the Inner Ring Road and passing the railway station, is well signposted and should get you started in the direction you want to go if you are a new arrival to the city.
