cycle parking programme
Richmond Council is discussing expanding its cycle parking programme by installing up to 40 new bike hangars.
Richmond Council's Transport and Air Quality Committee discussed proposals in March 2026 to expand the borough's cycle parking programme, an initiative designed to increase the availability of secure bicycle storage. The committee was presented with an update on the programme, which includes both cycle stands and bike hangars, with the aim of encouraging more residents to choose cycling for their everyday journeys.
During the March 2026 meeting, councillors were asked to approve a consultation regarding the installation of up to 40 new bike hangars across the borough. This forms part of the council's ongoing effort to enhance cycling infrastructure and support sustainable transport options within Richmond upon Thames.
