Madrid: Secure bicycle parking

The Challenge

The city of Madrid would like to implement safe and secured bicycle parking with the possibility of charging e-bikes, located in a strategic point where the users, after finishing their trips on the bike lane, and arrived at the city centre, they can park their bike safely in a shelter-secured parking to then use public transport.

The Objective

The main goal is to upgrade the cycling infrastructure and enable citizens to park their bikes in the public space in a safe and secure mode, with the possibility also to charge their e-vehicles. Madrid wants to enhance active mobility and intermodality at mobility hubs, therefore they would like to offer citizens new secured parking spots for private bikes, both electric and non-electric in those strategic points. Currently there are not enough parking for bikes in the strategic areas of the city, especially where bike lanes cross with mobility hubs.
