Velo Park Project
Work has finished on the new £2 million Evesham Velo Park. Based on the site of Evesham United FC, the track includes a 1km closed road circuit, a pump track, an all-ability circuit aimed at supporting cycling for disabled riders, and a cyclo-cross course with unique mogul area.
There is also a learn to ride track, which includes street marking, to help children and adults build confidence while learning to ride. New football pitches have also been installed to replace ones lost by the development.
The project was part-funded by a £500,000 grant from Sport England and British Cycling with the rest coming from section 106 sports infrastructure funding. This is money provided by housing developers to provide new sports facilities in Evesham.
