TfL Ref: 0030-1819

Thank you for your email received by us on 3 April 2018 asking for information about motorcycle parking facilities.

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Information Regulations and our information access policy.  I can confirm that we hold some of the information you require. You asked for:

Motorcycle parking facilities

What facilities have been installed and how much has TfL spent on providing dedicated motorcycle parking facilities (including theft prevention / secure
facilities) in the last three years. Recently, the City of London police have advised motorcycles to be chained yet as far as I am aware, no such facilities exist in the City.

We do not hold this information as the local authorities are responsible for motorcycle parking facilities in London. However, information on motorcycle parking in London boroughs including the City can be found via the following links:

https://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/services/transport-and-streets/parking/Pages/motorcycle-bicycle.aspx

https://tfl.gov.uk/travel-information/safety/road-safety-advice/motorcycling-in-london?cid=motorcycling 

In accordance with section 21 of the FOI Act, we are not obliged to supply you with a copy of the requested information as it is already accessible to you elsewhere.

By contrast, how much has TfL spent on bicycle infrastructure (excluding highways), i.e. metal sunken posts to chain bikes to.

In 2014-15 and 2015-16 the annual budget for cycle expenditure was £250,000 and in 2016-17 it was £175,000.

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.

Yours sincerely
