Free bike parking campaign is extended due to popular demand from Milton Keynes businesses

    Due to popular demand, the Ride It, Lock It, Love It campaign has now been extended to June 18th.

    As part of the campaign, Milton Keynes Council is offering free and secure bicycle parking stands to local businesses in a bid to encourage more employees to cycle to work.

    A range of different cycle stand products are available, including cycle hoop stands in a variety of colours, vertical and semi-vertical bicycle racks to businesses.

    £45,000 from the local authority's budget will go towards the project to help businesses reduce emissions.

    Councillor Jenny Wilson-Marklew, Cabinet Member for Climate Action and Sustainability at Milton Keynes Council, said: “We want all businesses who can, to provide safe cycle parking for both their staff and visitors. If we really want to change people’s behaviour and get them to cycle to work, then we need to work with businesses to make it easy and safe to do so.

    “Businesses are being encouraged to get in touch with our partners, PWLC, to carry out a staff travel survey, site audit and application form for the free bicycle stands.”
