A new 100-space cycle hub has opened at Winchester rail station as part of a £3.8m investment to deliver 1,400 extra cycling spaces at 36 stations across the South West Trains network by the end of the year.

The hub has two-tiered racks and free to use cycle maintenance equipment, including pump, tools and stand. It is fully enclosed, providing shelter from the weather with 24/7 CCTV for additional security and a real-time information display screen.

It has been developed in partnership...
