New cycling hub opened in Brighton

02 April 2015/Categories: Industry News


A £1.5 million cycling hub at Brighton train station has been opened by transport minister Baroness Kramer, bringing the number of secure bike parking spaces at the station to a total of 800.

The Department for Transport provided £650,000 towards the total cost of the centre, and the remainder of the cost has been met by Brighton and Hove Council, Southern Railways and Network Rail.

This development is part of a £15 million government investment in cycling facilities at stations around the country.

The new hub will provide 500 extra parking spaces for bikes, as well as cycle repair services. There are also fitness classes on offer, complete with showers and accessible toilets.
Baroness Kramer said: “We are serious about getting people on their bikes and this fantastic facility will make it easier and more convenient for people to cycle to and from their station. Cyclists will be able to leave their bike with confidence knowing it will be safe and secure.”
