Queens Quay, Bristol – End-of-Trip Facilities

Queens Quay is a landmark regeneration scheme on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal, delivering modern residential buildings, community amenities, and extensive public realm improvements. As part of its sustainability and active travel strategy, the development required a high-capacity, future-proof end-of-trip cycling facility.

The Bike Storage Company was selected to design and install a complete indoor cycle room system across multiple blocks. The solution integrates space-efficient two-tier racks, semi-vertical racks, and Sheffield stands — configured to maximise capacity while providing accessible options for all users. This modular rack arrangement supports day-to-day commuting, long-stay storage, and flexible expansion as resident cycling uptake grows.

Internal fit-out elements included small-item lockers for helmets and accessories, pump and repair stations, and organised bay layouts for intuitive movement within the space. All equipment was manufactured in the UK and installed to meet the developer's durability and safety requirements, with a focus on anti-corrosion performance, ease of maintenance, and long-term ROI.

Queens Quay demonstrates how high-density residential projects can meaningfully support modal shift by embedding cycling facilities directly into the building’s infrastructure. The result is a secure, user-friendly end-of-trip experience that enhances resident wellbeing and aligns with the area’s wider sustainability goals.
