And a real pleasure for me to meet the Cyclehoop team to celebrate our partnership and the installation of Westminster’s 250 cycle hangar. We know there is a need for more cycle hangar capacity across Westminster and we have just finished consultation on 17 new sites and are planning consultation a a further 21 sites later this year.

It was a pleasure meeting with Councillor Paul Dimoldenberg, Cabinet Member for City Management and Air Quality, alongside Aamena Shan, Nikos Kougioumtzidis, Sean Dwyer and Louis Jouhar this morning to celebrate Westminster City Council’s 250th Bikehangar installation. This milestone marks significant progress in enhancing cycling accessibility and infrastructure within the borough. Here’s to continued collaboration as we look forward to the next 250 Bikehangars and beyond, making Westminster a leader in sustainable urban mobility!🏆🌳

Did you know? 🙋🏻♂️A lack of secure cycle parking is preventing many people on lower incomes from taking up cycling, according to a new report by Sustrans Secure cycle parking is key to making cycling accessible and inclusive for everyone.

Reimagining our cities can often appear all about big, glamorous projects. But simple changes, such as providing secure cycle parking can be transformational. Sustrans have recently released important research, shining a light on two clear areas of inequity in the provision of cycle access. Firstly, the issue of parking. It’s fantastic to see the work of colleagues at Sustrans, including Tim Burns Rachel White Rob A. Dan Simpson and others deliver the Cyclehoop funded Residential Cycle Parking Report. A fundamentally important piece of work highlighting the need to ensure all people have ready access to store and park their cycle. ‘We found that just under a third (32%) of people on a low income or not in employment did not have a convenient and secure space to park their cycle at home. This equates to 3.7 million people who are locked out of cycling, despite being those who need it most.’ Local Authorities need to prioritise the provision of secure and accessible cycle parking, prioritising flats and areas of deprivation. This needs to be supported by national government to put in place the required standards and regulations for residential cycle parking. If people have somewhere safe, secure and accessible to store a cycle at home, they are far more likely to have and use one for more of their everyday journeys.

We are thrilled to announce that Cyclehoop has been shortlisted for two prestigious awards in the Made in Britain - official Impact Awards 2024! 🎉 Charmian Beedie, our Head of Marketing is in the running for Inspiring Leader of the Year, and we’re also up for the Innovation of the Year Award.

Stay tuned for the results, and wish us luck! https://lnkd.in/etnk2Z97 🤞

Have you heard about our newly launched Education Fund? The initiative has been set up to help schools install cycle parking and encourage students to choose active travel. Cycling empowers students and gives them independence, whilst reducing the number of cars on the road. Happy, healthy kids perform better at school and adding exercise to their daily routine will provide benefits for years to come.
