| Comment | This. I get that people (definitely) shouldn't be keeping bikes in closes, as it's a fire hazard, and shouldn't keep them locked up outside, as they attract thieves.
But there aren't many other options. People do this because the city has pretty much zero residential parking for bikes - except in a few modern, private blocks of flats I can think of.
There was talk of cycle parking pods being trialled at 80-odd locations across Glasgow last summer: https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/17601611.glasgow-launch-on-street-bike-parking-scheme/
Since then, not heard a peep about it. All the while you can barely walk on the pavement in some neighbourhoods because of the amount of pavement parking. |
