Utrecht Station Cycle Parking impression YouTube stillVideo: World's biggest cycle parking facility coming to the Netherlands - 12,500 spaces
Utrecht Centraal railway station in the Netherlands is to get the world's largest cycle parking facility, with space for 12,500 bicycles.
Final plans for the scheme for the eastern entrance to the station have now been approved, with the facility opening in two phases - the first in 2016, with final completion two years later.
It will sit beneath a new square, closed to motorised traffic and lined with shops and cafes, and comprises three levels of cycle parking. A video has been released showing a CGI simulation, including how cyclists will enter and exit the new installation.

That'll be chaos when someone puts a strava segment in there!!!
Here's an interesting angle on bike parking - an automated underground bike park in Japan - not sure how you get your bike back when the inevitable equipment failure occurs though !

I didn't see any trains? Am I missing something? Apart from understanding Dutch.
Well, it's a project that will create the east station square, and next to the station rather than inside it.
Worst Mirror's Edge level ever.
