Bicycle parking under the Mensa bridge

Bicycles in front of fall trees at Campus North

The bicycle parking facility under the Mensa bridge creates a secure parking area for bicycles.

As part of its sustainability strategy, TU Dortmund University has undertaken to create secure bicycle parking at the university. For this purpose, a bicycle parking facility is being built under the Mensa bridge. The fencing work has already been completed. Commissioning is planned for April (from the 13th calendar week) this year.

You can now apply for a parking space, which will then be distributed by lot among the applications received. You will then have a parking space for 1 semester. At the end of the summer semester there will be a new application phase with a lottery. There will be a total of 84 parking spaces available. We assume that not all users will store their bikes there all the time and therefore issue more transponders than there are parking spaces. We want to offer as many TU members as possible a secure parking facility. Therefore, there are 126 transponders for the bicycle parking facility under the Mensa bridge for the upcoming summer semester.

Currently, the facility is open until the transponder emission and offers rain-proof parking spaces so that cyclists can already test the facility.

If you would like to apply, please fill out this form by 03/15/2023. If we receive too many applications, the lottery will decide. You will be notified when the parking spaces have been distributed and you have been given a place. Then we will contact you with all further information about the distribution of the transponders.

Update: Registration is closed for this semester (SoSe 2023). For the coming winter semester 2023/24, the bicycle parking facility will be raffled again.
