The **Windsor Road cycleway** is a predominantly [off-road](/source/Roadway) 31-kilometre-long (19 mi) cyclepath between [Parramatta Park](/source/Parramatta_Park%2C_New_South_Wales) and Macquarie Street, [Windsor](/source/Windsor%2C_New_South_Wales) that is generally aligned with the [Windsor Road](/source/Windsor_Road) and [Old Windsor Road](/source/Old_Windsor_Road).[1]

## Route

Windsor Road cycleway km 0 Parramatta (33°48′40″S 150°59′50″E / 33.811184°S 150.997245°E / -33.811184; 150.997245) Connects with Parramatta Valley cycleway 1.9 Westmead + Children's hospitals 9.1 M7 cycleway 13.0 Kellyville → Ettamogah Hotel 18.0 Rouse Hill 31.0 Windsor (33°36′36″S 150°49′05″E / 33.610031°S 150.817971°E / -33.610031; 150.817971)

The cycleway accesses the [North-West T-way](/source/North-West_T-way) between Darcy Road, [Westmead](/source/Westmead%2C_New_South_Wales) to Windsor. Some major road crossings are required, particularly on [Old Windsor Road](/source/Old_Windsor_Road) but all are controlled by traffic lights. There are connections to the [Parramatta Valley cycleway](/source/Parramatta_Valley_cycleway) via Parramatta Park, Toongabbie and Girraween Creek via McCoy Park, Toongabbie Creek cycleway, [Blacktown](/source/Blacktown) via Sunnyholt Road cycleway and to the [M7 cycleway](/source/M7_cycleway) at [Bella Vista](/source/Bella_Vista%2C_New_South_Wales).[2] Between the 14-mile (23 km) stretch from Westmead to [Rouse Hill](/source/Rouse_Hill) there are some 26 traffic light controlled road crossings and therefore riding along this cycleway is a very stop-start process. There is a steep climb from Abbott Road up to Seven Hills Road when travelling north.
