Why is High Friction Surfacing Important for Cycle Paths?
High Friction Surfacing (HFS) is essential for cycle paths in Cheshire as it significantly enhances grip, reducing the risk of skidding and improving overall cyclist safety, especially in wet or icy conditions.
By increasing skid resistance, it shortens braking distances, which is particularly crucial at sharp bends, junctions, and pedestrian crossings. HFS also helps prevent accidents on downhill slopes and high-risk areas, making cycling safer and more reliable.
The use of high-contrast colours improves visibility, ensuring cycle paths are clearly distinguishable to both cyclists and motorists.
The durability of HFS means it withstands heavy use and adverse weather, minimising maintenance costs while maintaining a safe riding surface.
Safer cycling infrastructure encourages more people to choose cycling as a mode of transport, promoting sustainability and reducing road congestion.
How much does High Friction Cycle Path Surfacing Cost?
The cost of high friction cycle path surfacing ranges from £20 to £100 per square metre.
The cost of HFS for cycle paths in Cheshire varies based on factors such as material type, application method, and project specifics.

What are the Benefits of High Friction Surfacing for Cycle Paths?
High Friction Surfacing provides several key benefits for cycle paths, enhancing safety, durability, and overall usability. The key benefits of HFS for cycle lanes are:
Improved Skid Resistance: Reduces the risk of cyclists slipping, especially in wet or icy conditions.
Shorter Braking Distances: Enhances grip, allowing cyclists to stop more effectively at junctions and crossings.
Accident Prevention: Reduces the likelihood of crashes, particularly on downhill slopes and high-risk areas.
Enhanced Visibility: High-contrast colours make cycle paths more distinguishable to cyclists and motorists.
Durability & Low Maintenance: Withstands heavy use and adverse weather, reducing long-term upkeep costs.
Encourages Cycling: Provides a safer and more comfortable riding experience, promoting sustainable transport.
Supports Road Safety: Helps integrate cycle paths more effectively into urban infrastructure, reducing conflicts with vehicles.
Anti-skid surfacing plays a crucial role in making cycling safer, more accessible, and a more viable mode of transport.
How Long does Anti-Skid Cycle Path Surfacing Last?
Anti-skid cycle path surfacing typically lasts 8–20 years, depending on the material used and regular maintenance efforts.
Regular inspections and timely repairs of cycle path surfacing significantly extend the lifespan of these surfaces, ensuring they remain in excellent condition.
