Bike Shelter Upgrade Civil, Electrical, Communications and Associated Works

As part of its services to customers, the Public Transport Authority provides secure bicycle facilities across the network. Customers are able to ride their push bikes to rail stations and leave the bike in secure bike shelters or lockers, before boarding trains.

By providing a secure and reliable accessible bike shelter at rail stations, customers will be encouraged to ride their bikes to the station and lock them up having faith that the bike will be in the shelter upon their return.
