Consultation launched on 40 new cycle hangar locations

Green cycle hangar
Monday 3 February 2025

We want your feedback on proposed new bike hangar locations as we look to make it easier, safer and greener to travel around the borough.  

There are hundreds of people on the waiting list for secure cycle parking so we’re looking at new areas to install hangars and encourage more residents to cycle a regular mode of transport.  

Cycling is a healthy and sustainable alternative to using a vehicle. And, with vehicles causing 95% of royal Greenwich's carbon emissions, helping people travel in greener ways is in line with our commitment to being a carbon-neutral borough by 2030.  

Councillor Averil Lekau, Cabinet Member for Climate Action, Sustainability and Transport said: "Cycling is not only great for our environment, it improves air quality and can also help people live healthier lives. Not everyone in our borough owns a car, and we also want people who drive to know they have the option to cycle. That starts with better infrastructure and these proposed cycle hangar locations are a crucial step towards encouraging more residents to choose cycling as their preferred mode of transport." 

The public consultation will run from Monday 3 February to Friday 28 February 2025. Residents are encouraged to provide feedback on the proposed locations and any potential concerns at royalgreenwich.gov.uk/cycle-hangars-consultation
