Bury St Edmunds station's northern entrance is getting a new 52 space Cycle Hub and improved walking and cycling routes, thanks to funding from Suffolk County Council, West Suffolk Council and Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom (funds managed by Sustrans). Located at the recently created northern entrance to the station, and replacing the former car wash waiting room, the Cycle Hub will offer 52 cycle spaces on a first come, first served basis. The new hub will be fully enclosed and covered by additional lighting and CCTV to enhance security. As part of the Cycle Hub, there will also be a special access-controlled space for 16 cycles, offering additional security. Access to the access-controlled area will be via a SMART Card, which can be purchased for £25 per year at https://lnkd.in/e8EZx-HB In addition, a new walking and cycle path, and speed bumps will be installed on the northern approach road to the station to improve safety for people walking or cycling to the station. The work is due to start later this month and is expected to be completed in the spring. #UKSPF
