About the Course and Riding Safety

The pop-up course is designed to help young riders, ages 3 to approximately 10 years, practise real-world road rules in a safe and fun way. The track includes speed humps, crossings, traffic lights and plenty of turns.

Traffic Park Road Rules

Slow down – cycle slower than you can run and enjoy the ride!

Helmet on, strap up – Always wear your helmet.
For little riders only – The Traffic Park is designed for kids aged 3 to approximately 10 years – we also know some riders might progress at different levels.
Adults, please stay close – All children must be supervised by a parent or guardian. Staff won’t always be available
Check your bike – Make sure your tyres are pumped and your brakes work before you ride.
Keep to the left – Just like the real road, always ride on the left side.
Red means STOP! When you see a stop sign or a red light, brake and look both ways.
Green means GO! Wait for the green light before you ride off.
Look, listen, and think – Keep your eyes up and watch out for other riders and pedestrians.
Leave space – Don’t ride too close - everyone needs room to move – if you or your bike can touch someone, you’re too close!
Use your hands – Signal left or right when you’re turning.
Pedestrians first – Slow down and let people walking cross safely.
Be kind on the road – Smile, wave, and take turns - good manners make great riders.
Follow the signs – Traffic lights, arrows, and crossings help you know where to go.
Have fun! Enjoy your ride, explore the City Centre, and be a traffic park star!
