Problem

The city needed a way to encourage cycling and walking in an area overwhelmed by cars and trains. The initial challenge was to create a bicycle parking and transit facility that could handle heavy use while integrating into the urban landscape. The solution had to address congestion, sustainability, and community needs all at once.

Solution

Redfort collaborated on a design that expanded a simple bike parking program into a multi-functional bicycle station. The structure features sustainable materials, like wood cladding and a vegetated green roof, to blend with the environment. It provides safe, covered parking for 450 bicycles and includes amenities that encourage cycling. By positioning the station at a transit crossroads, it links different transport modes and prioritizes pedestrian and bike flows through thoughtful urban design.

Product

The completed bicycle station is a landmark in active mobility infrastructure. Redfort’s contribution includes custom facade screens (using the Lalace product) that provide both ventilation and visual identity. The wooden and metal elements, combined with the lace-like metal facades, create an inviting yet functional enclosure. The product effectively showcases how architectural fabrics and smart design can transform a transit facility into an attractive public space, ultimately promoting greener transportation habits.
