Creating the Cycle Parking Infrastructure to Support Cycling in the UK
The CPD aims to give the architect a full overview of the issues involved in designing and specifying cycle parking. Cycling is a booming activity and increasingly is being incorporated into planning requirements, as well as other specifications such as BREEAM. The presentation takes a hierarchical look at the planning system and current requirements. It looks at the resources available to architects, describes the different types of cycle parking solutions available and discusses the pros and cons of each cycle facility. This CPD will help you to understand the following topics:
- Understand cycle parking facilities
- Understand the development of cycling and the growth of cycling as a mainstream form of transportation
- Understand planning requirements and guidelines
- Understand the design and specification implications of cycle parking, product styles and design solutions
- Understand other issues for the designer to consider
