A good parking for bicycles is important, because it allows the cyclists to park properly and avoid bike theft. The City also has bike boxes for local residents.
Bicycle parkings
The City of Brussels opted for a U-model hanging down. Several hundreds of them were installed, mainly in the city center. The City wants to replace all the older bicycle parkings by this new type.
The demand for the placement of such a parking can be made by e-mail: velo@brucity.be.
Bicycle boxes
The City of Brussels has bicycle boxes on its territory. A bicycle box is a box with key access that can accommodate 5 bikes from local residents.
The rent for a place costs 60 euro per year. The management of the bike boxes is owned by Cyclo.
Conditions
The places in the bicycle boxes are distributed taking into account a number of criteria:
- being domiciled at the City of Brussels
- 1 place per family in the bike box
- not having a place for a bicycle in the apartment building
- living less than 200 meters from the box
