bicycle_parking

This tag is used for describing the type of bicycle parking. It is useful to describe the type of bicycle parking because many users (cyclists) may prefer to park at one style of parking than another, due to concerns related to security or risk of damaging their bicycle.

Key Value Element Comment Photo
bicycle_parking stands nodearea A bent piece of metal against which you can lean your entire bicycle. Makes it possible to lock the frame and a wheel to it. Rectangular stands are sometimes called "staple racks" in North America due to their shape, and "Sheffield stands" in the UK. Use this tag for non-rectangular stands as well (e.g. round ones, fancy artistic ones, long ones allowing to attach more than two vehicles). StandsImproved double-barred staples
bicycle_parking wall_loops nodearea Sometimes, but not always, attached to walls. Often referred to as "wheelbenders" by cyclists. Secures only the front wheel (or possibly back wheel), the front bit or lower bit. Note that the key feature of the "wall loop" style is not that the rack is mounted to a wall. Instead, the key definitional criterion is the use of narrow "slots" that stabilize both sides of a single bicycle wheel, without providing support to the bicycle frame. Many "Wall loop" bicycle racks are attached to the ground. Low security wheelbender style bicycle-parking wall-loop, in Fontaine 38600, France wall loops without the wheel bending. Fairly high stability, often placed diagonally to safe space in narrow streets. Fits normal tyres only. Disappearing for their lack of theft safety. An example of a common type of front-wheel-only bike stand in the Netherlands. No danger of wheel bending, with a loop for attaching a lock.Parc de Torrecremada de Dénia, aparcador de bicicletes.jpg
bicycle_parking rack nodearea A rack can hold several bicycles. As with wall_loops, often referred to as "wheelbenders" by cyclists. One type is a coathanger rack (pictured at top-right). This type of parking lacks side-support for the bicycle frame. In many cases difference between this bicycle parking type and bicycle_parking=wall_loops is very small, with some mappers preferring to use this more specific type.

bicycle_parking shed nodearea A custom-built closed shed in which many bikes can be stored, possibly with individual stands inside. Use supervised=* to indicate whether bikes are guarded. Alternatively, you can tag it with covered=yes and set the value of bicycle_parking=* to the type of bicycle parking that is inside. Consider using locked=* to specify if a key, card or other authentication device is needed to use the shed. Enclosed, lockable bicycle shelter, at a school in the West Midlands of England.
bicycle_parking bollard nodearea A special kind of bollard designed for bike locking. Generally, the bike is locked to the central pole and "arms" of some sort prevent thieves from simply lifting the bike over the pole. If it doubles as a barrier, add barrier=bollard. Ones with ring so big that it can be used to lean entire bicycle qualifies also for tagging as bicycle_parking=stands Bike bollards along a bike path in Toronto.Stand in O-form
bicycle_parking wide_stands nodearea A type of stand with a wide bent piece of metal against which you can lean your entire bicycle. It's wider than the stand described above : one can park bicycles on each side without handlebars standing in the way. It's usually longer than the regular stand. As there are two pieces of metal, there's more room to lock the bicycle. Note that this tag value appeared relatively recently and many people continue to use bicycle_parking=stands also for this type of stand. This value would be likely better as subtype stands=wide) or additional tag like long_stand=yes rather than attempting to redefine widely used tag. Wide stands (called "paperclips" in France)
bicycle_parking building nodearea Like shed, but with a proper building, which means that bicycles are protected from the elements. Use supervised=* to indicate whether bikes are guarded. Use opening_hours=* if applicable. Alternatively, if the bicycle parking is not part of another building, you can tag it with building=yes and set the value of bicycle_parking=* to the type of bicycle parking that is inside. Inside the Radstation in Münster. Karlsruhe Fahrradstation Süd
bicycle_parking lockers nodearea Parking takes the form of lockers which enclose bicycles fully and individually, typically secured with some form of key or combination system. Good security. Often used at train stations. Bicycle Lockers. At Dunfermline Town Railway Station.
bicycle_parking wave nodearea A single metal tube bent into multiple "loops", to which multiple bikes can be locked at a single point, perpendicular to the stand. Please, never use this value. Usage is low and it is recommended to use to utilize stands or racks or wall_loops value instead. Most bicycle parking is fortunately tagged using these other three values. When tagging, focus on whether the amenity's design facilitates the user attaching a bicycle by both wheel and frame (stands) or is small and suitable for attaching just the wheel (wall_loop). single metal tube bent into multiple large loops, similar to stands single metal tube bent into multiple small loops, similar to wall_loops single metal tube bent into multiple loops for bicycle to be supported perpendicular to the longest direction of the bicycle stand, similar to wall_loops
bicycle_parking anchors nodearea An anchor (a relatively small loop, through which a lock is threaded to park one's bicycle) hammered into a wall, the ground, or boulders----or mounted on a post or other structure..

It may refer to devices like https://www.panzerhülse.de/ or https://www.amazon.de/Abus-78606-8-Wand-Bodenanker-Black/dp/B076JCN6CS

bicycle_parking safe_loops nodearea A modern variation of wall-loops. The bicycle is supported by an additional frame. Makes it possible to lock the frame and a wheel to it.

bicycle_parking lean_and_stick nodearea A lean-to bracket with possibility to use a lock through eyelet. The seat tube can be held by the stand.
