Writing on The Guardian’s Bike Blog, Tom Bogdanowicz and Mike Cavenett – two cycle campaigners working for the LCC – want to see an increase in convenient secure cycle parking located in and around central transport hubs throughout London. They argue that the Boris Bike has illustrated London, as a cycling city, contains enormous potential to expand its sustainable transport networks, but that without a commitment to deliver secure indoor parking such capacity will remain dormant.
The London Cycle Campaign have also just launched the Cycle Parking for London Campaign, where cyclists can tell the LCC where cycle parking shortages are and where new stands should be introduced. The information will be used to support the LCC’s request to introduce 100,000 across London and to advise key decision holders where new stands should be placed.
