Cycle Hangars PPM

Descriptions

Westminster City Council currently operates 230 secure Cycle Storage Units throughout the borough, located across the Public Highway (188 hangars) and on a number of Council Housing Estates (42 hangars). Hangars are located in every ward of the City, and are distributed according to resident need as determined through online Registrations of Interest. The greatest concentrations of hangars are in the north-west (Harrow Road, Maida Vale and Queens Park wards), and in the south (Pimlico North and Pimlico South wards). The majority of hangars in the borough are Cyclehoop Bikehangar units, with a capacity of 6 bicycles per unit. 41 of the total number of hangars are FalcoPod units, and there are also 3 mesh cage shelters in use as part of this scheme. The network currently has capacity for 1354 individual bicycles. Since the commencement of the scheme, it has been a focus of the Council and Cabinet to continue growing the scheme through the installation of further hangars. The current target set by project management is for 60 new installations per year moving forward. There is currently no anticipated end date to this scheme.
