dc.description.abstractABSTRACT Bicycle parking facilities is a highly relevant field within sustainable urban development. If done right it can contribute to increased travels by bicycle which in term contributes to winnings in both health, environment and economy. The main goal of this project was to give guidance to the municipality of Varberg in the choice of bicycle parking solutions and the layout of the parking areas at Varberg’s new train station. This was done by a great variety of methods. The most prominent ones have been observations of existing solutions and bicycle parking areas, surveys that reached out to the potential users and interviews with cyclists in the real context of a station area. Throughout the process, people in the bicycle industry have been consulted as well as urban planners and non-direct users of the bicycle parking. The result of the thesis is a plan of the layout of the bicycle parking areas at Varberg’s new station area as well as recommendations on which products to use. The layout of the area entails: a clear overview, good accessibility for all visitors, a guidance of how to use the different solutions and thus, leading to an orderly looking parking area. Furthermore, another part of the outcome is an individual parking box module that can easily be adapted to the need of securer parking at a specific location.sv
