Melrose Ave Dockless Bike Hire Bay Relocation
The bay is being relocated from its location at the western end of Melrose Avenue, opposite Gladstone Court, to a new location at the eastern end of Melrose Avenue at the side of 114 Chichelle Road.
The bay is being relocated to address safety and accessibility concerns on Melrose Avenue near to the junction with Anson Road, and as a means of meeting demand for cycle parking and to address complaints from residents around badly parked and abandoned bikes at the eastern end of Melrose Avenue.
Following the close of the consultation, all comments and feedback received will be carefully considered and a decision made whether to progress with the proposal. A consultation report detailing the outcome will be published at https://haveyoursay.brent.gov.uk within one month.
Phases
Consultation
Brent Council is working to improve cycling facilities to encourage residents to engage in active and sustainable travel. By promoting cycling, the Council aims to enhance public health, reduce traffic congestion, and improve air quality throughout the borough.
A key priority is the provision of dedicated parking facilities for hire bikes across Brent. This will help make cycling easier and safer for everyone – ensuring that hire bikes are more accessible for users, whilst addressing issues around poorly parked bikes blocking the highway and obstructing pedestrians and other road users.
