Route R5

Tilehurst Station, The West Village & Oxford Road to Reading Town Centre

Avoid congestion through the Oxford Road local centre by cycling along the off-road cycle path on Portman Road and Oxford Road west all the way to Tilehurst Station. Remember that traffic is moving slowly, usually less than 20mph past Oxford Road Primary School, so if you want to move more quickly, pass vehicles on their right. To get into the bus lane towards town, position yourself in the centre of the road.
