Liberty Village - Bike Here!

Three clusters of secure bike lockers havebeen installed conveniently in the two Green P parking lots of Liberty Village.  Each cluster consists of 5 lockers.  The lockers can be rented through the Liberty Village BIA at acost of $10. per month, plus a one-time payable security deposit of $20.

The lockers offer protection from theft, vandalism and inclement weather, beyond what would be provided by conventional bicycle racks. The lockers provide an alternative storage solution for those Liberty Village cyclists that haul their bikes into their offices for safe storage.  These safe and secure lockers are the first for Liberty Village. We hope you can join us to appreciate these functional yet artistic additions to the creative Liberty Village public space. Ride your bike!
