"The new 2.5km-long cycleway extension will link the southeast London areas of Greenwich and Woolwich with one continuous, segregated route, meaning no more swerving through traffic or being forced to ride dangerously close to cars. When complete, it'll mean that cyclists will be able to pedal all the way from Woolwich to Tower Bridge. It's also expected to cut cycling journey times - it currently takes just under half an hour to bike between Greenwich Station and Woolwich Station."
"TfL began work on the Cycleway 4 extension in summer 2025, and the brand-new route will be finished in 2027. TfL's goal is to bring London's daily cycle journeys to 1.6 million by 2030. And with an average of 1.5 million daily bike rides estimated for 2025, it's well on its way to making this a reality. More than 29 percent of Londoners now live within 400"
Transport for London is extending Cycleway 4 by 2.5km to create a continuous, segregated cycling route linking Greenwich and Woolwich. The extension will remove the need for cyclists to weave through traffic and will enable travel from Woolwich to Tower Bridge entirely on segregated lanes, shortening journey times currently just under half an hour between Greenwich and Woolwich stations. Work began in summer 2025 and completion is planned for 2027. TfL plans 95km of new cycle routes in coming years and targets 1.6 million daily cycle journeys by 2030, up from an estimated 1.5 million in 2025.
