Cycling is growing massively as a trend in both leisure and practical travel. Promoting cycling as a mode of sustainable transport is becoming a priority for many different organisations across the UK and a big part of this is providing cycle parking facilities.
We at Cyclepods love cycling, we love our environment and we recognise that space and security are big issues in today’s precious urban spaces. We want to make a difference in the way that people use cycle storage so that cycling as a mode of transport is more attractive and more efficient.
Learning Aims
Cyclepods know from experience what the best practice is when introducing cycle parking to your site and this CPD will take you through all you need to consider when planning and choosing cycle storage that suits your project, benefits cyclists and will ensure whatever storage specified will be used. The learning aims of this CPD are;
1. Key site considerations
– Choosing the right location for cycle storage
– Recognising potential obstructions and clashes
– Considering how the end user will use the proposed site
– How to maximise cycle storage in the space available
2. Choosing the right storage
– How to choose cycle storage that suits the end user
– Determining features best suited to the proposed environment
– Considering Secured by Design certified and tested products
3. Sustainability
– Opting for more sustainable materials
– Considering the circularity (recyclability) of your preferred storage
– Ways to reduce the carbon footprint of your project
