Sefton Council appointed Lockit-safe to deliver a large-scale cycle parking solution for Stanley High School, a secondary school with over 800 pupils. The school previously had limited provision for bike storage, which restricted students’ ability to cycle to school. To support sustainable travel and healthier commuting habits, Lockit-safe installed a spacious 80-cycle York shelter, significantly increasing on-site cycle parking capacity.
OVERCOMING CHALLENGES
The project was delivered during term time, requiring careful coordination to ensure pupil safety and minimise disruption. All works were fully segregated using Heras safety fencing, and deliveries were scheduled during off-peak times to avoid busy periods on school grounds.
Lockit-safe’s extensive experience working in live school environments proved invaluable. We maintained clear communication with school staff throughout and delivered the project on time and within budget—ensuring a smooth installation process with minimal impact on day-to-day operations.
