Wardale / Littleborough / Newcastle Cycle Compound
Product Details:
At the core of the system is a central access point, with cycle parking arranged to the left and right within the compound. This configuration supports efficient circulation while maintaining clear lines of sight across the structure.
The design integrates:
• Wardale shelter elements
• Littleborough shelter features
• Newcastle Senior central structure
• Lockable front gates
• High security rear panels
Together, these components form a cohesive and adaptable secure cycle compound suitable for large-scale installations.
Designed for High-Capacity Storage
This cycle storage compound is particularly well suited to sites where substantial cycle provision is required.
Typical applications include:
• Secondary schools and academies
• Colleges and universities
• Corporate headquarters
• Transport interchanges
• Leisure centres and sports facilities
• Local authority campuses
By opposing two shelters and incorporating roof panels and gated access, the structure creates a fully enclosed bike compound that protects both users and assets.
Enhanced Security and Protection
Security is central to the design. The compound can be specified with:
• Lockable access gates to the front
• High security panel systems to the rear
• Fully covered roof panels
• Reinforced steel framework
This arrangement creates a controlled environment that supports longer dwell times and discourages unauthorised access. The enclosed format makes it particularly appropriate for student and staff cycle parking within education settings.
Flexible Configuration Options
The modular construction allows the compound to be adapted to suit site-specific requirements. Opposing shelters can be combined to increase capacity, while the Newcastle Senior structure forms a strong central spine within the design.
Optional adaptations include:
• Additional roof panels for full enclosure
• Alternative gate arrangements
• Bespoke panel treatments
• Adjusted compound dimensions
This flexibility enables the creation of both medium-sized and large-scale bicycle compound installations depending on projected demand.
Integration Within Wider Site Infrastructure
The Wardale, Littleborough & Newcastle cycle compound is often specified alongside:
• Internal cycle racks and Sheffield stands
• Access control systems
• Perimeter fencing and security measures
• External lighting and CCTV infrastructure
• Wayfinding and branded signage
This coordinated approach supports structured and secure active travel zones within broader masterplans.
Installation and Specification Considerations
When specifying a cycle compound, project teams typically review:
• Required cycle capacity and layout
• Controlled access requirements
• Ground preparation and foundation design
• Wind exposure and structural loading
• Drainage and surface water management
• Proximity to building entrances
Broxap provides full installation services across the UK and Ireland, ensuring safe integration within operational sites.
