Obos and Bikely join forces to provide secure bicycle parking to shoppers

A beneficial collaboration

Obos, a leading real estate company in Norway, has recently partnered with Bikely, a provider of secure bike parking solutions, to deliver safe and convenient bicycle parking options to visitors of its shopping centers. The partnership has already resulted in the installation of safe bike parking facilities outside three shopping centers in Oslo, including Tveita, Manglerud, and Lambertseters.

With the rise in popularity of cycling as a mode of transportation, more and more people are opting to cycle to their destinations, including shopping centers. However, the lack of secure bike parking facilities often deters people from using their bicycles for these purposes. This is where Obos and Bikely come in to address the issue and provide a solution.

Healthy and environmentally friendly

By installing Bikely bike lockers outside their shopping centers, Obos is not only catering to the growing demand for safe bicycle parking but also promoting a healthier and more environmentally friendly mode of transportation. Customers who cycle to the shopping centers can now park their bicycles in the secure bike lockers and enjoy a worry-free shopping experience.

A sustainable investment

The bike lockers provided by Bikely are off-grid and easy to deploy, making them an irreversible investment for Obos.

Moreover, the partnership between Obos and Bikely is aligned with Norway's sustainability goals. The Norwegian government has set a goal to increase the share of cycling and walking as modes of transportation in urban areas to 8% by 2023. By providing safe and convenient bicycle parking facilities, Obos is contributing to this goal and promoting a more sustainable lifestyle.

In conclusion, the partnership between Obos and Bikely has resulted in the provision of safe and convenient bicycle parking facilities outside shopping centers in Oslo. This partnership not only meets the demand of customers for secure bicycle parking but also promotes a healthier and more environmentally friendly mode of transportation. With the increasing popularity of cycling, this partnership is a step towards achieving Norway's sustainability goals and creating a more sustainable future.
