No officer has been supplied with a printer in order to carry out the necessary tasks from home during COVID. Whilst this has driven officers to manage without printing, there are some instances where it cannot be avoided. PH regularly prints off invoice and payment evidence which at present is a requirement of the internal auditor and some tasks that are easier and quicker by comparing data on paper. For these occasions where printing cannot be avoided, PH has used her own home printer, which is second hand from ebay and will probably decide at some point to stop working. CW is tasked with dealing with the post, and there have been occasions when a response is required to a member of the public who does not use email. Whilst not wanting to encourage the use of paper and the destruction of trees, since taking on the Finances for the council, PH has found it impossible to do the job without printing out certain documents and has recognised that a printer is a necessity in order to carry out the role effectively. If the Council decides to adopt a more flexible working policy, the printers will continue to have a use. PH has researched the market place and there are still some difficulties in obtaining certain manufactured items, because of COVID and Brexit. I have also looked at the comparison reviews and the results are as follows in the table below which includes a Laser printer as these are better to use if printing out notices etc. as the ink doesn’t bleed but in order to reduce the pricing the printer quoted is monochrome:

Bike parking Wish-list- emma

I propose we concentrate funding for bike parking for 3 main areas of town, the bottom of Monnow street, the centre of Monnow street and in Agincourt square. With a little extra funding saved for hoops in a couple of other handy spots on the perimeters. I would also like to see at least one covered parking area and all parking to be highly visible and suitable for all sizes of bikes. 1) A frame Cycle stands 2 x stands at back of Home Bargains, 2 x stands half way down Monnow street (opposite but not outside Coffee #1)

4 x racks including delivery and VAT (excluding installation) = £525.60

https://cycle-works.com/products/rounded-a-rack/ 2) Winchester racks 4 racks in Agincourt square at the wide part near the Punch House.

4 x racks including delivery and VAT (excluding installation) = £1,212

https://cycle-works.com/products/winchester-rack/

3) Bespoke shelter could be made and fitted by a local blacksmith. (Design to be finalised)

£8,500

4) Cycle Hoops

1 x hoop outside Kings Fee post office 1 x outside yummies, 1 x outside library, 1 x by St Mary’s church.

£400 + £80 = £480

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/cyclehoops/lamp-posts/

Total costs = £525.60 + £1,212 + £8,500 + £480 = £10,717

Of course this does not include fitting so we may need to cut back somewhere.

Multi stands/racks

1) This stand is being installed in the Market car park in Abergavenny;

Costs £3,000 excluding fitting

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/racks/car-bike-port/

2) Planter rack - £3,990 + vat excluding fitting

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/racks/planter-rack/

3) “Velo-Planters are a modern way to create bike parking in an urban environment, by adding cycle parking to a planter. (Price requested)

These bespoke planters can be manufactured in any shape or size, and for a wide variety of settings and applications. Planters are made from galvanised steel, but other materials can be used on request to suit the planting scheme, setting and design required.

The Cycle-Works’ Velo-Planter incorporates a laser cut stainless steel locking point with a modern and attractive hard wood and steel planter.

https://cycle- works.com/products/velo- planters/

4) Rectangular steel planters about 900mm x 400mm x 500mm high with a long rail / handle along the top of each side to lock the bikes to? Filled with soil etc they would be hard to move, or could be bolted down.

I would estimate the cost to be £300 to £350 each plus VAT, depending on how many are required. I saw some on the web for about £200 earlier but they were pressed ones, lighter than I would like to make them. You could obviously buy the lightweight ones if funds are really short... [email protected] – local blacksmith

Single stands

1) This stand can only be cemented into the ground. Cost £53.38 ex VAT and installation (£64.06 inc VAT) Made from Galvanised steel.

https://www.barriersdirect.co.uk/secure-bike-parking- c1017/bike-racks-c1195/cycle-stand-sheffield-galvanised- root-fixed-p33455

2) This stand has a central bar so that smaller bikes can also lock to them. From £69 each

Surface mounted - Galvanised: £75 (exc. VAT), Black Nylon: £89 (exc. VAT), Stainless Steel: £149 (exc. VAT) Root fixed - Galvanised: £69 (exc. VAT), Black Nylon: £79 (exc. VAT), Stainless Steel: £129 (exc. VAT)

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/racks/planter- rack/

3) This stand is designed for small and larger bikes to lock to.

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/stands/theta- stand/

Root fixed, Stainless Steel 304: £165 (exc. VAT) Root fixed, Galvanised & Powdercoated: £179 (exc. VAT) Bolt down, Galvanised: £150 (exc. VAT)

4)

5)

6)

7) The Winchester rack

Proposed 4 x racks in Agincourt square at the wide part near the Punch House.

In addition to its good looks, the rack also holds the bike well. The top of the rack is between the saddle and front stem which keeps the bike stable. Mountain bikes and smaller children’s bikes in particular benefit from the additional locking points. The user is encouraged to lock the bicycle frame and front wheel to the rack.

4 x racks including delivery and VAT (excluding installation) = £1,212

https://cycle-works.com/products/winchester-rack/

8) Conservation racks 4 racks in Agincourt square at the wide part near the Punch House. https://cycle-works.com/products/conservation-rack/

4 x racks including delivery and VAT (excluding installation) = £923.52

9) A frame racks

4 x racks in including delivery and VAT (excluding installation) = £525.60

Covered stands/shelters

1) This stand would need to be measure up to ensure it could be fitted where we wished it to go. Awaiting prices. (No doors)

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/shelters-canopies/green-roof-shelter/

2) Again, needs to be measured up to ensure it could be fitted where we wished it to go.

Cycle Shelter for 10/ 12 bikes - £2,795 + vat

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/shelters-canopies/cycle-shelter/

3) This shelter would need different stands inside as wheel holders are not recommended (can bend wheels) and hard to lock to.

https://www.barriersdirect.co.uk/secure-bike-parking-c1017/bike-shelters-c1197/cycle-shelter- steel-perforated-cladding-p703

2450x1900mm Shelter - £ 1,604.33 per unit 2450x2500mm Shelter - £ 1,728.22 per unit 3060x1900mm Shelter - £ 1,909.31 per unit 3060x2500mm Shelter - £ 2,111.57 per unit

4) A bespoke shelter could be made and fitted by a local blacksmith. (Design to be finalised) “Incorporating an outline of Charles Rolls with a Georgian / early Victorian inspired structure, I have priced up steel / Perspex for the roof and ends/ galvanising, powder coating etc. I estimate this design would be around £8,500 to make and fit (I do not charge vat) We thought that the incorporation of Charles Rolls should be bold and in a prominent position so thought that the ends of the bike shelter would work well as he could be seen from multiple vantages . It would be great to know your thoughts as this is just an initial idea to help get the ball rolling.

According to the galvanising association website, the steel should be protected for up to 85 years before it would start to show signs of corrosion. If the powder coating gets scratched or damaged, the steel underneath should still be protected so maintenance wise, the paintwork may just need touching up where it gets weathered in places. I have fitted jobs and go back 5 years later and the paintwork is still in perfect condition. I am unsure of the life span of the Perspex but I would imagine that would have a fairly long shelf life as it the material I have been looking at is designed specifically for street furniture.” http://www.anvilforgeblacksmithing.co.uk/ Cycle hoops for lamp-posts and railings

1) Needed in a few areas around town (eg outside post office) they mean that a cyclist is able to lock their bike up with a D-lock (more secure) rather than just a chain. They also help support a bike.

Approx 100 each + vat ex fittin

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/cyclehoops/lamp-posts/

2) Suitable for locking two bikes with D-locks on a lamp-post

https://www.cyclehoop.com/product/cyclehoops/hd/

3) Smartstreets Cyclepark - Suitable for locking 2 bikes

The Cyclepark is designed to fit within a few minutes. It provides a secure bicycle parking facility using existing street furniture, typically 76mm diameter sign posts but we can create larger Cycleparks for other specific profile columns. RRP £225.00 + Vat each, plus delivery. http://gallery.smartstreets.co.uk/cyclepark/

Council and contractor discounts: 1 - 9 units - £175.00 each. 10 - 24 units - £165.00 each. 25 - 49 units - £159.00 each. 50 - 99 units - £154.00 each. 100 - 199 units - £145.00 each. 200+ units - £139.00 each. Prices ex Vat.

Addendum

Please see below for optional positions for bike infrastructure in town. This is not to suggest we try to install all of these, rather that these are the places suggested when bike parking has come up.

2.2.4 If the ‘place’ function of residential streets and local centres is neglected, strategic transport corridors also become congested with people making local short trips by car because they see no alternative. The most economically successful and attractive places offer safe access from the surrounding area and high-quality public space. If the streets feel comfortable and safe, people spend more time and money locally.
