Bicycle shed Grote Markt will be closed for two weeks from Monday | NOW

The bicycle shed under the former V&D building on the Grote Markt will be closed for two weeks from Monday. The entrance to the parking facility will be improved during that time. In addition, scaffolding will be placed in front of the facade of the building above.

That reports OG TV. The municipality has chosen to close the parking facility during the summer holidays, because there will probably be less parking during this period. Normally there are between three and six hundred bicycles in the shed during the week.

A temporary bicycle shed will be placed. It will be located right next to the entrance to the Grote Markt bicycle shed. This temporary bicycle shed is guarded. In addition, the ‘bicycle stewards’ at the temporary parking facility will refer parkers to the Nieuwe Markt parking facility.

Alderman Philip Broeksma expects that cyclists can be properly facilitated and that the situation can be monitored. The municipality will also treat bicycles that are not in a designated place with leniency.
