 CORPORATION OF LONDON CAR PARKS
To respond to this underprovision within developments, the City adopted a new motorcycle parking standard in the City of London Unitary Development Plan 2002 (which was adopted as the City's principal land use planning document on 9 April 2002).
Since the Mayor of London introduced his congestion charging scheme in February 2003 the City has increased the public motorcycle parking provision in Baynard House car park from 50 spaces to 375 spaces; in Minories car park from 40 spaces to 445 spaces; and in White's Row car park from 80 spaces to 405 spaces.
