#BikeBunker

For many residents in terraced homes and apartments, having nowhere safe to keep a bike is a real barrier to cycling. A BikeBunker removes that barrier using the space of a single car parking bay, an easy measure any city can adopt to get more people cycling every day.

If you need somewhere safe and secure to keep your bike, but don't have space in your home, a bikebunker may be the solution. Ask to have one installed in your area, or see if there's space in one nearby, at bikebunkers.ie

As @bleeperactive.bsky.social roll out BikeBunkers on behalf of @dubcitycouncil.bsky.social, they map their locations and status.

52 of the 56 #BikeBunkers are full, with spaces in the remaining 4.

A @claudiadalby.bsky.social article in @dublininquirer.com also investigated the question of whether residents could swap their on-street car-parking space for a household bike bunker - is there a more recent discussion of this?

Could Residents Swap Their On-Street Car-Parking Space for a Household BikeBunker? - Dublin Inquirer

Dublin City Council's new #BikeBunker service arose from a €4,500 BETA Project.

The first BikeBunker of the new service has now been installed, with an initial target of 1,800 BikeBunker spaces.

There's some additional info in the alt text. They're where people had applied for spaces within a BikeBunker - light blue looking for 1 space, dark blue 2 spaces (which was the cap).

Mapping expressions of interest in a trial is useful to give a sense of scalability and types of areas interested.

Today we removed the hangar within which the two @bleeperactive.bsky.social cargo bikes for #CargobikeSharingBETA were based.

We will now iterate on this trial, switching to an onstreet approach, with the cargobikes locked to (low) bike stands at this same location - to learn about that approach.

If you are interested in the idea of secure bicycle storage near your home, please see www.bikebunkers.ie where you can also register your interest in spaces.

@dubcitycouncil.bsky.social is currently completing a tender for a service provider to deliver a #BikeBunker service for the city.
