Case Studies
The University of Bristol has recently taken delivery of six FalcoCargoBox lockers, creating the UK’s first ever network of secure cargo bike parking. Located across five separate sites at the University, each locker provides unparalleled secure storage for a wide range of cycles including cargo bikes, e-cargo bikes, adaptive bikes, recumbent bikes, tandems, tricycles, oversized and upright cycles as well as bike trailers.
The six supplied lockers mark the UK’s first ever network of secure cargo bike parking and the fourth public cargo bike facility installed by Falco, with other schemes including a Beryl public cargo bike hire scheme for the London Borough of Hackney, a secure cargo bike solution for NHS Grampian and a public cargo bike hire scheme for Climate Action Ilkley.
Designed, manufactured, supplied and installed by Falco this spring, the images attached show the new FalcoCargoBox cargo bike lockers installed at the following key University of Bristol locations:

Each secure cargo bike locker makes use of a high security lock, reflective rubber edge protectors and a stylish ‘Traffic Green’ branding wrap. The large double doors at the front of the locker coupled with a gas-assisted lid, provide wide accessibility for a variety of cargo bike shapes and sizes.
Introduced in 2021, the FalcoCargoBox was designed to provide secure cycle parking for the increasing trend for cargo and adaptive bikes and is the only product of its type currently available in the UK.
The FalcoCargobox is simple and easy to use. Two securely locked front doors open to provide easy accessibility from the front and an innovative gas-strut assisted lid can be opened to provide easy accessibility from above. Together when fully opened, the FalcoCargobox is an open and spacious cargo bike storage solution that is easily operated.
