    I remember there being news that DCC was going to trial on street covered bike parking using the Bike Hangar (can't paste link on phone for some reason but there is an irish cycle article on it). Did this trial ever actually happen? Can't see anything about the results on the net.

    The Report Card is generous. I gave negative feedback to the project and it wasn't addressed whatsoever. I can only asssume others also raised issues. The report is bacially just a big pat on the back to whoever ran the project. Critical feedback is surely more useful than a chorus nodding in agreement.

    Probably more down to DCC's decision to use a different domain for stuff like this. Not sure why they would think this was a good idea....

    Does anyone know the current status of this project?

    I have just moved in to a 2-up 2-down in Stoneybatter and the good bicycle is currently parked behind the couch (to my wife's dismay). My very old rusty commuter bike is chained to a lamp post outside on the street. Back yard and front hall are both too small to accommodate bikes.

    I would love the option of secure on-street parking, I bet there are many people in the area who would too - it might even encourage people to cycle. Would be very willing to pay.
