Sustrans Scotland

We're the charity making it easier for everyone to walk, wheel and cycle.

We work for and with communities, helping them come to life by walking, wheeling and cycling to create healthier places and happier lives for everyone.

We're the custodian of the National Cycle Network – the UK-wide network of over 12,000 miles of signed paths and routes for walking, wheeling, cycling and exploring outdoors.

The National Cycle Network provides a vital backbone to the country, connecting communities to each other and helping neighbourhoods come to life.

For Sustrans, a liveable city or town has social connection at its heart, and clean air and green space for all to live and play in.

We believe the places we live, work and enjoy ourselves should be planned around people, not cars. And we want to see a reduction of the traffic in our neighbourhoods, resulting in flourishing communities and thriving businesses.
