Glasgow’s Queen Street Station is the latest ScotRail Station to Receive Secure Falco Cycle Parking

Falco continues with the roll out of the next tranche of cycle parking facilities across ScotRail's franchised network of over 300 stations across Scotland. Pictured here is the latest two-tier cycle parking installation at Glasgow’s Queen Street Station.

Falco manufactured, supplied and installed 54 spaces of the FalcoLevel-Premium+ two-tier cycle parking system, along with two FalcoFix 2.0 cycle repair stations and the design and construction of a DDA cycle ramp, enabling cyclists with all abilities to use the new cycle parking facility with ease.

The scheme, which got underway last winter, involves the surveying of stations, proposing solutions and the manufacture, supply and installation of cycle parking systems to help implement ScotRail’s cycling strategy.

In order to create a network-wide brand feel to encourage more people to cycle to stations ScotRail’s strategy is to install standard facilities throughout the network so that cyclists know exactly what to expect regardless of which station they use.

The user experience will be enhanced further by Falco installing multiple way finding signs at every station so that the cyclist will be well informed to where they can use the facilities.

Falco has already carried out the design, manufacture, supply and installation of secure cycle parking facilities for a wide number of stations including Conon Bridge, Muir of Ord, Keith and Insch, Huntly, Nairn, Larkhall, Lenzie and Gourock stations, with further stations to receive secure cycle parking this summer.

Upcoming stations include bespoke cycle hubs for Inverness and Fort William Stations, as well as secure cycle parking for Barrhead, Ladybank and Kirkhill stations.

Patrick Harvie MSP, Minister for Active Travel, announced a £2million cycling legacy fund to promote and enhance cycling infrastructure and services across Scotland’s Railway.
