1.3 miles, under 10 minutes. Intermediate, this route has good new cycle lanes more of the way, and just a couple of busy places where they are not present.

Notes: Seacourt is the Park & Ride to the West of the city. This route is very straightforward and has recently been improved with new cycle lanes/tracks.

* Leave the Park & Ride to the south, if convenient, use the exit behind the car dealership. Then turn left (east) towards Oxford.

* At the bridge under the railway, take caution as the cycle lane is narrow, paint only, and the surface is poor. You may want to 'take the lane'.

* Just past the station is Frideswide Square, where you have the option of cycling on shared pavements. (The signs for this are small or embossed in the paving).

* At the end of Frideswide Square, turn right into Park End Street. (If you want to head towards Broad Street, turn left here instead). 

* On the return journey, the turn right is by a 'jug handle'. Fork LEFT on to the pavement just before a traffic island (signed 'Park & Ride only'). Then cross the road, in two stages if necessary, using the traffic island.
