Cycle Parking, Lockers and Showers

In 2020 we installed 1000 new cycle parking spaces across campus and Bloomsbury Estate, transformed two locations into bicycle hubs to act as secure parking, and started a trial of bike hangars.

This interactive map shows you where to find cycle parking spaces and cycle-hire racks across Bloomsbury, as well as the location of showers and lockers in UCL buildings.

Cycle parking racks

Over the summer closure, UCL has installed 200+ cycle racks across campus and Bloomsbury Estate. Adding to the existing 800 racks, there are now over 1000 bicycle parking spaces across the campus and UCL buildings.

• Purpose: Short Stay.
• Where: All locations can be found on the cycle map above.
• Who: Staff and Students.
• Access: Freely available.

Lockers

Smart Lockers are available at the Student Centre on Level B2, Mezzanine, Level 2 and Level 4. These can be used by students, with their student cards. View more information on UCL Lockers for Students.

• Purpose: Day-long storage for those on campus.
• Where: 27-28 Gordon Square, WC1H 0AH.
• Who: Students only.
• Access: Student card access.

Ramsay Hall

130 spaces have been provided in the courtyard of Ramsay Hall. These can be used for work-time parking for staff and students who are based at Ramsay Hall and nearby buildings. Ramsay Hall will be staffed between 0800-19:00 from Mon-Fri. The entrance is on 20 Maple Street. Staff and students need to use the intercom on the left-hand side to call through to reception for them to open the gate door and wheel the bicycle through. 

• Purpose: Short stay and day-long parking for those studying at Ramsay Hall and working studying in nearby buildings.
• Where: 20 Maple Street, W1T 5HB.
• Who: Staff and Students.
• Access: Users currently need to use the intercom. We are in the process of creating card access for staff and students, which will remove the need to ask reception staff for access.
