The Uni-Cycle Cycleway is a 5.6km cycle route from Christchurch city centre to the University of Canterbury. It connects to central city cycle routes in Hagley Park and along Rolleston Ave., as well as the Northern Line and Nor’West Arc major cycle routes.
This video has been uploaded separately to the (to-be-released in July 2024) compilation of all other major cycleways in Christchurch, to improve visibility of the route for university students new to the city.
