                    On Lygon Street in Carlton, we replaced two car parking spaces with 12 bicycle hoops, allowing parking for 24 bikes.

                    Studies found that over an average day, the space generates almost four times more expenditure in the local economy than if used for car parking.

                    Locking your bike

                    Always lock your bike with a good D-lock or armoured cable. Using a cable and D-lock together is even more secure.

                    Secure your bike in visible areas with lots of people around, and avoid locking your bike to sucker poles as they can be easily lifted out of the ground. Remember to remove your lights and check your lock before leaving.

                    The police can assist in the recovery of stolen bikes. If your bike is stolen, the theft should be reported to the police as soon as possible.
