Leeds Cycling Consultation Forum (also known as Leeds Cycle Forum) is held twice a year usually on a Wednesday evening early in the month. The Forum is held in the Civic Hall, Leeds - the white building on Millennium Square, with the golden owls. There is a small amount of cycle parking outside, and we can also bring bikes into the building and leave them in the downstairs corridor on the left. Just ask at reception and they'll tell you which room the meeting is in. There is also cycle parking behing the nearby Rose Bowl building at the back of the Civic Hall.
Leeds Cycle Forum is, not surprisingly, a forum for discussion of all matters related to cycling in Leeds. It is open to interested members of the public so anyone can attend. It is attended by elected members and representatives from Leeds City Council and its partners.
The Forum's current chair is Councillor Izaak Wilson who is the Council's Active Travel Champion.
The Forum often looks at road schemes in the planning stages, and will discuss big projects such as the new public transport schemes and longer term strategies for road transport. It is our chance to talk directly to the Council's planners about things that affect us - from a single piece of road design, to how much money will be spent on cycling over the next 15 years!
The Forum also runs at least four sub-groups each year. Two of these generally look at plans for future road and cycling infrastructure. Other sub-groups are run more like workshops and look at particular cycling-related issues in more depth, such as cycle parking or wayfinding.
Details of forthcoming Cycle Forum and Forum subgroup meetings should be given on the Council website: Leeds Cycle Forum.
If you can't find anything there, please write to the address on that page, or contact us as we may have had separate advance notice.
We also aim to publish forthcoming meeting dates in our Events Calendar.
