Request a bike rack

Thanks for sharing your interest in a bike rack. Please complete the information below to send your request to staff.

After you submit your request, we'll review your request based on these considerations:

  • racks must be located within the street right-of-way and be available to any member of the public
  • racks cannot block sidewalk access
  • maintenance of adequate clearances from the curb, utility poles, street furniture, hydrants, bus stops, loading zones, parked car door zones, crosswalks, etc.
  • a flat concrete surface free from cracks or other damage
  • preference for racks in a visible area with significant foot traffic for casual surveillance

We cannot guarantee all eligible locations will receive a bike rack, depending on demand and budget constraints. We do not provide bicycle racks on private property or schools. 

You can make requests year-round, but installations will typically occur in the following spring season at the earliest.

Which of these applies to you?
 


Land acknowledgement

The City of Kitchener is situated on the traditional territory of the Chonnonton, Anishinaabeg, and Haudenosaunee Peoples. We recognize our responsibility to act as stewards for the land and honour the original caretakers who came before us. Our community is enriched by the enduring knowledge and deep-rooted traditions of the diverse First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples who live in Kitchener today.
