Very few local authorities currently have mandatory standards for cycle parking, and those which do are those districts which for many years have had a high percentage of overall trips by bicycle. The standards set out above have been prepared on the basis of information supplied by the Cyclists Touring Club of Great Britain relating to local authorities which have a low percentage of overall trips by bicycle. Where a range of standards are shown, the upper end of the range relates to the standards required by local authorities which have a high percentage of overall trips by bicycle. It would be expected that this upper standard should be provided for towards the latter part of the plan period.
PPG13 indicates the importance of providing secure cycle parking facilities. Consequently it is considered that, until such time as the District Council adopts a particular range of equipment, cycle parking facilities should be drawn from the following range:
- Sheffield Type Cycle Parking Stands
- Mawrob
- Glasdon
- Grippa Secure Cycle Parking Racks
- Lokit Cycle Locker Systems
- Bicycle Mini Garages
- Velobox
