Description

Forestry England will shortly be tendering for the design, construction and commercial operation of Rogate Bike Park. Rogate Bike Park is a grass roots site that has evolved from informal mountain bike trails to a commercial operation. The trails have a certificate of lawfulness in place from the local planning authority. There has historically not been a formalised car park, however now planning permission (with reserved matters) has been granted for a paid car parking provision. Car park construction has yet to take place (as of 21/08/2026). Please note that it is our intention to advertise this tender once the car park works have been completed. Forestry England are currently looking to secure further funding for investment on site, such as a welcome cabin and further toilet provisions. This is not confirmed funding at the time of market engagement.
