Edinburgh City Council has embarked on its most extensive cycle parking project to date. Lockit Safe was awarded the contract along with a tight timeline of just eight weeks to coincide with year-end budgets.
Overcoming Challenges with Precision
Undoubtedly, this tender came with its fair share of challenges. The project must work alongside the constraints of school hours, adhere to tight deadlines, and deliver bespoke solutions tailored to each site’s unique requirements.
A Diverse Range of Solutions
