VeloPark

During the London 2012 Games the Velodrome will host Track Cycling, Paralympic Track Cycling and the BMX events, while Hadleigh Farm in Essex will host the Mountain Bike events.

After the Games Lee Valley Regional Park Authority will own, fund and manage the VeloPark and open it to the public soon after. The Velodrome and surrounding areas will be transformed into Lee Valley VeloPark to create a cycling hub for the community and will include a stunning Velodrome with seating for 6,000 spectators, BMX track, one mile road cycle circuit and a mountain biking trail.

Velodrome Interior

School children, clubs, groups and elite riders from across the region can train, race or simply cycle for fun. It will also be able to stage major cycling events.

It will be designed to be accessible to all, to attract people of all ages and abilities and will improve the health and quality of life for the residents of Lower Lee Valley. We will continue to work with the local Boroughs and British Cycling to encourage cycling as an accessible recreational activity as well as a competitive sport.

The BMX track at the VeloPark

The project offers the opportunity to develop our partnership working with Sustrans, the National Cycle Network. In addition to the cycle routes already running through Lee Valley Regional Park, the VeloPark will be linked into cycle routes across London, connecting the whole of the capital with the new world-class cycling facilities.
