Bicycle Victoria wants to make it easy for you to integrate with the public transport by bike. That’s why we are working with the Department of Transport to get free, undercover bike parking cages at stations across Victoria. We want to see more of these across the network in future.
As a cage member these cages will allow you to park your bike undercover, secure and for free at one of the participating stations.
The cages were designed to Bicycle Victoria requirements and are operated by Bicycle Victoria.
Parking in a Parkiteer cage is free. Secure access is provided by a access card system and movements in and out of the cages are electronically monitored. There is a $50 deposit for the security card.
Parkiteer will increase the total commuter parking capacity at railway stations, as 26 bikes fit in each cage. Each covers an area roughly equivilant to three car spaces.
It is predicted that mixed mode journeys involving bikes and public transport will continue to increase. More people will be prepared to bike to the station now that their bikes can be secure. Registrations at many stations are already outnumbering the existing bikes locked up around station precincts which would suggest that already some train users are converting to arriving by bike.
Priority locations for cages are decided by the Department of Transport, based on a number of factors, including the level of demand for existing bicycle facilities, accessibility and zone-change stations.
