Bike counters installed

Brighton & Hove City Council has installed two cycle counter display units in the city; the first in the UK.

The cycle counter display units, in London Road and Lewes Road, will show the number of cyclists using the road as they go past so everyone can see.

Due to be officially launched during Bike Week (19-27 June), the information displayed on the counters will promote cycling and demonstrate how cycling levels are rising.

The cycle counter display units can be found on the east side of A23 London Road, (at the edge of Surrenden Park), and the east side of A270 Lewes Road, near Moulsecoomb Library. 

  • Cycle Counter Display Units in Brighton & Hove have been partially funded from the European Civitas scheme and Brighton & Hove Cycling Town funding from Cycling England/Department for Transport. The city council won £2.2 million to invest in small-scale transport projects and is the only city in the country to win European money from the Civitas Archimedes Project for such schemes. Council officers are working with five other cities in Europe to share best practice, experience and skills.
