Learn to ride centres are open to families, schools, and community groups to teach children from preschool to year 4 how to ride bicycles and scooters safely.

The centres simulate a real road environment that educate children about road safety and develop practical riding skills. It features footpaths, roundabouts, pedestrian crossings, line markings and road signs. Further information is located around the facility that educate children and their parents about road safety when riding and walking.
