Cycle facility improvements on Campus?
I note with interest that one of the first cycle-related pieces of work carried out shortly after requesting suggestions from BUG for ideas for improvement, is the addition of 'No Cycles' signs on the railings opposite the front of the IMC building….
These railings are next to a wide footpath, which is little used because it's quicker to walk straight across the courtyard. So it's not even as if parked cycles here are in the way. There are often plenty of them, which indicates a need for some cycle parking.
Were I feeling excessively cynical I might speculate that the reason these signs have appeared is more aesthetic than practical….

Have you complained to estates about the lack of cycle parking in the area?
I sympathise with trying to stop people locking their bicycles to railings, but alternatives must be provided. Covered cycle parking nearby would attract cyclists away from the railings.
