Cycle Parking Guide
Getting it Right: Appropriate Cycle Parking
When considering your cycle parking there are factors you should try to address to get the maximum user interaction from your cycle parking solutions.
Take a look at the informative list below:
- Well spaced two cycle stand with bicycle support giving a large parking facility with a smaller footprint
- Single door access, level – no steps. Ramps correctly laid out with space to manoeuvre
- Located next to the changing rooms and a few metres from the building access point
- Secure employee access mechanism required
- Parking is inside or at least covered for protection from the elements
- If possible add lockers/cages, drying room and showers in the same space
Cycle parking is a combination of SALS:
- Stands – for support and security
- Access – easy to get to and correctly laid out
- Location – near the entrance and closer than car parking
- Security – safe from theft and the elements
