Stay safe, mind your distance and consider others

Exercise is so important for our health and wellbeing, so we want everyone to be able to enjoy it in safety and comfort.

When out and about:

• take it easy and slow right down when on your bike on a shared path
• stay left and pass on the right
• keep your dog on a lead in busy areas
• stay alert, especially if using headphones or your phone
• remember that not all disabilities are visible, slow down and give enough warning

Cycling tips

When out cycling:

• use your bell to let people know you are there in advance, especially at blind corners
• give others space
• don't pass at speed
• at night avoid dazzling others with your lights: dip, dim, don't strobe

Walking and running tips

When out walking and running:

• listen for cyclists' bells
• allow cyclists to pass
• at night, think about whether you are visible to others

Dog walking tips

When out walking the dog:

• keep dogs on a short lead or close to heel
• clean up after your dog
• at night, use a reflective collar or coat on your dog
