On-street bike parking for residents

Bicycle hangar in Camden

We are committed to providing cycle (bike) hangars on our streets and housing estates as part of our residential cycle parking programme.

We currently have circa 417 bike hangars on streets across the borough, providing 2,502 covered, secure, and fully enclosed bike parking spaces for residents.

Request a bike hangar

Visit the Hooplr website to request a space or join the waiting list for one of our existing bike hangars.

If there is no available space at a suitable location, you can request the provision of a new bike hangar. Officers then consider requests based on demand data and funding availability.

Suggest a bike hangar location.

Installing new bike hangars

We are aware of growing demand from residents living in high density dwellings that are common in the borough and usually have limited space for covered and secure bike parking.

Residents in Camden have told us that they would like to have more lockable bike parking close to where they live. We know that a lack of somewhere covered and secure to keep bikes can discourage people from taking up cycling. We want to help as many people as we can to take up cycling if they want to. To help we have a programme of bike hangar installations across the borough.

We want to support the 17 recommendations from Camden’s Citizens Assembly on the climate crisis. Bike hangars also help to deliver our own Transport Strategy priorities, which were strongly supported when we consulted on them, including increasing cycling, improving air quality, and making our streets and transport networks safe, accessible, and inclusive for all.

Bike hangars also help to deliver priorities in our Climate Action Plan and Clean Air Strategy and Clean Air Action Plan.
