Cycle-parking standards
The cycle parking standards are based on those found in the Local Plan. These standards are
minimum requirements. As stated in the Local Plan, the standards may be relaxed in the Transport
Central Area because of the proximity to public transport. However, cycle parking is seen as very
desirable and will be sought in the West End. Shower facilities will also be sought in the West End,
as set out in the Local Plan.
