Amsterdam, NH develops underwater bike garages for improved connections to transit options

Amsterdam, NH Underwater Bike Garages Connections Transit

Complete

A four-year project resulted in two underwater facilities with a capacity of up to 11,000 bikes. Cyclists park the first day for free with a €1.35 fee applied for each additional day. The parking structures connect to Amsterdam's Centraal Station using a series of moving walkways. City officials are removing surface bike racks and garages above the Stationsplein. This shift to underground parking translates into wider cycling and pedestrian lanes along with a cleaner waterfront.
