This is the first in a series of four webinars that covers all aspects of bicycle parking. The series begins with an overview of basic principles, followed by three focused discussions on applications and techniques used by different entities with an interest in accommodating bicycle parking demand. Using videos, schematics from actual projects and case studies, this series examines the role bicycle parking can play in creating healthy, sustainable communities.

The first session considers the basic principles of accommodating bicycles in both public and institutional environments. We will review types of parking in current use for both short and long term parking, and describe the conditions and constraints which guide selection of parking strategies and equipment. The session will look globally at the organization of the APBP Bicycle Parking Guidelines and preview the following sessions. Topics include core concepts, rack design and features, site planning and innovations.

Municipal planners, transit agency staff, managers of educational, corporate and healthcare campuses, members of Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committees (BPACs), and elected officials and staff of bicycle advocacy organizations should attend these webinars. Intended for both the experienced agency manager and those new to developing bicycle parking solutions, examples are drawn from across North America to show how a comprehensive approach to parking can help achieve both public and private goals while integrating with other land use, transit and sustainability efforts.
