🚲 Exciting news for Cardiff cyclists! 🚲 Cardiff has just rolled out 31 brand new secure bike lockers across the city, tackling a pressing issue of bike theft head-on. This initiative aims to make cycling more appealing and secure for everyone!
You can now find these lockers at seven key locations, including spots like Queen Street East and Charles Street. Ideal for those who want peace of mind when leaving their bike behind, these lockers cost just £1 to £1.50 per day. Plus, there’s a plan in the works for long-stay parking options too! 🌟
Since the first lockers appeared outside Cardiff Castle this summer, they’ve been a hit, with over 100 users embracing the extra security for their 465 journeys so far. 🚴♂️
Cardiff council has big plans — aiming to install 100 lockers in the first year alone, expanding into areas like Cardiff Bay and Roath. This initiative isn’t just about stopping theft; it’s about making cycling more accessible and appealing to everyone in the city!
While some locals have voiced concerns about site locations, rest assured, they’ve been carefully chosen to avoid being right outside homes. Your feedback matters, and 80% of cyclists surveyed agreed to pay a small fee for this added security. 💡
We’re excited to see the positive impact this scheme will have on our wonderful city. Keep an eye out for the new lockers and get ready to pedal worry-free! 🌿
