Where can I find secure parking for my bike in Marseille?

In Marseille, a number of solutions have been put in place for the secure parking of bicycles. These include the RTM bike shelters, which are secure structures that can park a large number of bikes while protecting users’ personal belongings.

The Metropole currently plans to install 80 bike shelters by the end of 2024.

Features and services available:

• Cycle pumps
• Repair workshops
• Access control and video surveillance (in some cases), guaranteeing enhanced security
• Free service for RTM card holders

Please note: to use this service, you must hold an RTM card.

Another solution is offered by Indigo neo car parks. At present, 3 Indigonéo car parks in Marseille offer bicycle parking facilities:

• Bourse – Musée d’Histoire – 1 Rue Reine Elisabeth, 13001 Marseille
• Quai d’Arenc – 2 Bd Euromediterranée Quai d’Arenc, 13002 Marseille
• Paradis Mélizan – 202 Rue Paradis, 13006 Marseille

Bonus, services available: workshop with stand, tools and inflation area.

Velhome is an innovative initiative that offers a secure parking service for bicycles, by putting private individuals wishing to offer a storage space in touch with cyclists looking for a parking solution. Thanks to this associative platform, users can park their bikes in private places such as cellars, terraces or gardens, thereby reducing the risk of theft, which is a major concern for many cyclists. Velhome is entirely free of charge, and can be accessed via an interactive map to locate available hosts. As well as making bikes safer, this solution encourages a community of cyclists to help each other, making the experience of cycling in Marseille more serene and enjoyable.
