Delivering Design and Placemaking:Access, Circulation & Parking RequirementsMotorcycle Parking Guidelines1. Motorcycle parking should be located in a safe, secure and convenient locationwhere other vehicles cannot encroach or obstruct the motorcycle parking area.2. Motorcycles are prone to theft. For reasons of security, motorcycle parkingfacilities should be located in areas that are visible and therefore allow forinformal surveillance. Surrounding high walls or shrubbery should be avoidedas they could provide cover for thieves. In certain instances the introductionof CCTV or other security means could be necessary. In particular thesefacilities should be located where other larger vehicles, such as vans, couldnot be used to steal the motorcycles.3. Robust anchor points must be provided to lock the motor cycles to, but thedesign of the anchor points must be such that they are able to accommodatea wide range of motorcycle wheel sizes, but without affording easy leveragefor bolt croppers or other equipment used for the purposes of theft. Care mustalso be taken to ensure that locking facilities do not present a trip hazard topedestrians, disabled persons and particularly people with sight problems.4. Covered motorcycle parking would clearly be of benefit to riders, particularlyfor long-term parking, as would the supply of convenient litter bins as ridershave little space for carrying surplus articles. It is also important to considerthe supply of lockers for storage of rider’s protective clothing and helmets.5. Motorcycle length and width dimensions are generally reduced when parked,as the front wheel will be turned to a locked position. The effective lengthand width vary between about 1600mm to 2300mm (length) and 650mm to900mm (width). A bay size of 2.8m x 1.3m is recommended.6. A further consideration is that of disabled riders. It is suggested that provisionbe made for disabled riders by way of special marked-out bays of increasedsize. Any rider experiencing reduced mobility and strength will benefit fromextra room to position themselves to the side of their bike when manoeuvringor mounting. As the rider population ages, stiffness and reduced range ofmovement will make this a common issue.7. Motorcycle parking bays should not be surfaced with bitumen based materialas it can soften in hot weather, causing the stand of the motorcycle to sinkand the bike to topple. Concrete surfaces should avoid this problem.8.
