With over 3,000 dockless bikes in the city at any time, it’s becoming a challenge to keep the pavements free from dumped bikes. Westminster Council are working to encourage cleaner, low emission transport in the city but some dockless bike users are causing problems by blocking footways and making it hard for pedestrians, especially those with visual or mobility impairments.
To tackle this, they are introducing a mandatory parking bay scheme across Westminster. This means users will need to end their trips in one of our designated bays. These new parking bays will be spread across Westminster, with more bays in the areas where demand is highest.
