Richmond Council is considering expanding cycle parking facilities by installing up to 40 new bike hangars.

In March 2026, Richmond Council's Transport and Air Quality Committee discussed plans to install up to 40 new bike hangars across the borough. The committee was presented with an update on the council's cycle parking programme, which aims to increase secure cycle parking. Councillors were asked to approve a consultation regarding these proposed installations.

The expansion of cycle parking facilities, which include both cycle stands and bike hangars, is intended to encourage more residents to choose cycling for their everyday journeys. No further meetings are currently scheduled to discuss this topic.
