Bike parking - bad practice Apartment blocks, terraced houses & public streets
![Page 12: David Timoney, Dublin Cycling Campaign. SBIR Challengue March 23rd](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030210/58a51dcf1a28ab143f8b5455/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Best practice: Accessibility, Security & Safety

• Close to apt entrance (accessibility)
• Sheffield hoops
• Well lit & no personal security issues
• Above ground with natural surveillance
• CCTV

• 200k living in apartment blocks…if we could fix bike parking..
• <2% of secondary school pupils cycle to school (Denmark 40%).
• Parking in cycling lanes – enforcement.
• Are people aware of the time & cost savings of cycling?
• Build case studies to prove the investment case for cycling.
• Cost to city of adding 5/10/15 mins to commuting times?
