Three New Docking Stations For Belfast Bikes Scheme
Three new docking stations are being added to the Coca-Cola Zero Belfast Bikes public share scheme.
Two of the docking stations are located at Queen's University, with a third being added in the Titanic Quarter.
Lord Mayor of Belfast, Councillor Arder Carson, said: "I would like to congratulate Queen’s University on taking this step to install two new docking stations on its campus. I am sure that they will prove extremely popular, not only with staff and students but also with commuters and tourists visiting nearby attractions such as Botanic Gardens and the Ulster Museum. They also will help us to address the high demand which the scheme has been experiencing in the Botanic and Bradbury Place areas."
The second station will be located outside the McClay Library, close to the entrance of Botanic Gardens, and is expected to be operational in the next few days. The installation costs for the two docking stations have been met entirely by Queen’s University.
