How to get parking for your bike?

Request a bike hanger

Bike hangers provide a good solution for securing your bike overnight, particularly when there isn’t room inside your own home. Haringey Council offers bike hangers to local residents although supply is not keeping up with demand. We have created a guide on how to request one for your local neighbourhood.

Request a Sheffield stand 

Sheffield stands provide an invaluable aid when you’re looking to lock your bike when you’re popping into a shop, local library, doctors or sports ground. Haringey Council have instructions on how to request a Sheffield stand where they are needed

How can I increase the security of my bike?

The Metropolitan Police have some handy advice on how to reduce the chance of your bike being stolen.

Register your bike

Among the advice is adding your bike’s details toBikeRegister which means that if your bike is located after being stolen, the police will know who to return it to. You will find bike marking events happening in London at various times.
