Do you dream of a future with genuinely secure active travel infrastructure? Well, today is a good day. Here's why...

@BeicioGwenda Thanks Gwenda, very happy to be there!

Great to have @SpokeSafe secure bike parking close to Cardiff station!

It's about using limited space as efficiently as possible. How we revolutionised cycle parking in one simple step (and 10,000 emails). Read more 👉 lttr.ai/Al4WP #ActiveTravelVehicle #InstantlyAccess #SecurePlaces

Secure cycle parking lockers are now also available across the centre! Only £1 per day with instant access via the Spokesafe app.

The best bit? This is an easy to follow, repeatable blueprint for other towns & cities across the UK to follow. Just 31 lockers will facilitate thousands of journeys for cyclists across Cardiff who want a secure spot in the city centre in the years ahead.

Cardiff is showing what’s possible when secure cycle parking is treated as infrastructure - integrated into the city’s wider transport network. A model for UK cities ready to level up active travel.

We're delighted to announce that Cardiff is the UK's first major city with a connected cycle parking network - powered by Spokesafe_OS. In partnership with @cardiffcouncil, we’ve delivered secure lockers across 7 city centre locations, all accessible via one simple system. 🧵👇 spokesafe.com/blog/cardiff-b…

Great to have this mini network installed across the centre of Cardiff. We have already seen really great usage and expect this to continue as the project matures.

We’ve seen really great usage of these lockers since they were installed. PLUS there are now a few more locations in Cardiff bookable in the app now too!

@ILovesTheDiff We’ve had excellent usage of these lockers since they were installed. And as it happens there are a few more locations in Cardiff live in the app now too.

No, they're not Cardiff's cheapest hotel rooms, although come Christmas.... Six shed-like bike lockers were installed a while back outside the Castle. To use them, you have to download the @spokesafe app. Has anyone used one yet? How did you get on?

"Do people cycle outside of London?" Our facility in Derby, the Derbion Cycle Hub, has demonstrated this 24,000 times... Read more 👉 lttr.ai/AkDPM

"55% of users stated they would have used a car if the cycle parking facility was not available, demonstrating the Hub's role in reducing vehicle congestion." Newport Cycle Hub shows investing in cycle parking = behaviour change. Read more 👉 lttr.ai/Ajxvm

Getting station cycle parking right is vital to encourage behaviour change. In 2024, we facilitated over 250,000 journeys by bike - and we're just getting started. spokesafe.com/blog/how-offer…

Retrofitting hubs with digitally connected locks, so any cyclist can sign up & access securely via the Spokesafe app.

This article sounds alarming, but British Transport Police are right: CCTV alone is not a deterrent to thieves. To stop thieves taking more bikes at stations across the UK, here are 4 easy to implement tips... bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

And if there's no space for a hub? We provide secure lockers for short, medium and long-stay parking - all bookable instantly.
