The Cycle Recycle Initiative involves purchasing second-hand bikes to create a shared pool of bicycles that can be loaned to the students at Rosebury Hall. The initiative calls for the purchasing of 20 bikes, D-locks, coil locks, lights, and helmets as well as a communal toolkit and pump for repairing bicycles. Funding will also go towards proper bike proficiency and safety training.
This project will encourage more sustainable transport options for the residents of Rosebury Hall and will also discourage students from discarding unwanted bikes at the end of their studies.
This project will be used as a pilot project and, if successful, may eventually be extended to all LSE halls.
