There’s hardly a destination where cycle parking isn’t a necessity – schools, businesses, stations, shopping centres, to name but a few. For cyclists though, it isn’t enough for cycle parking to purely exist, it needs to be well designed, secure and convenient for use.
This is why its such fantastic news for cyclists that the Mayor recognised that new developments must have higher levels of cycle parking to meet a growing demand as he publishes the latest version of the cycle parking standards.
It is worth noting that the amendments to the London Plan state that any new cycling infrastructure should adhere to the guidelines in the new London Cycle Design Standards.
