Nantes is pedaling full speed ahead into the future. The city has just inaugurated the largest bike parking facility in France, right next to the South train station. A national first that puts the city of the dukes right at the top of the podium for cycling cities.
1,216 spaces for all bikes
The number is impressive: 1,216 parking spots spread across two levels. This isn't just any parking lot; it's a true home for your bike. Whether you're on a classic bike, cargo bike, longtail, or even a scooter, everything has been designed to welcome gentle mobility in the best possible conditions. The space is fluid, clear, secure, and well-marked. No more struggles to find a spot!
An intelligent and well-equipped parking
This isn't just a bike warehouse. The place includes:
*A self-service repair workshop for everyday little mishaps (flat tires, finicky brakes, etc.)
*Charging stations for electric bikes
*...and much more!
*And above all, enhanced security: controlled entry, video surveillance, access reserved for users with a TAN ticket or a subscription.
The good news? The parking is free for the first 24 hours. A great way to encourage the people of Nantes to swap their car for a bike ride!
