Japanese Bicycle Parking Machine

According to Danny Choo, the eco-friendly bicycle is the main form of transport in Japan. With so many bicycles roaming the streets, parking has understandably become a concern.

To address this problem in heavy traffic areas such as parks, Giken has created this unique automated bicycle parking system. Able to store up to 144 bicycles underground, this machine is also able to park and retrieve the vehicles in under 10 seconds for 2,600 yen/S$41.30 a month (1,300 yen/S$20.60 for students).



If only parking our cars could be just as easy...
