DAC review Anti Terrorist Bike Parking Strategy  
City Hall, London
Lorraine Gamman and Adam Thorpe presented to GLA, TfL and CCoE on Design Against Crime’s review of Anti Terrorist Bike Parking Strategy - it seems that counter terrorism agendas DO NOT prohibit bike parking although some architects quote “security considerations” when asked why no parking is provided. With careful consideration designers can provide for cyclists AND avoid increasing risks of terrorism.
