CYCLING
The Cathedral provides secure/anchored cycle racks so why not take advantage and keep yourself fit as well as helping to improve your carbon footprint by cycling to the cathedral whether individually, as a family, with a group of friends or with your local cycling organisation. Simply ask at the Constable's /Security lodge on the main Cathedral access road off Upper Duke Street on arrival and you will be directed to the cycle racks. Many of the Liverpool city streets and roads are cycle friendly with lanes and crossing points clearly marked. Just visiting the city? - Well - You can even hire a cycle if you wish to enjoy the frredom to explore and the fresh air rather than using public transport
