The French city of Mulhouse launches a new velopark powered by Don Cicleto’s technology

The city of Mulhouse, located in the French region of Alsace, has launched a new velopark next to the Covered Canal Market, a secure bicycle parking service powered by the technology of Don Cicleto.

The new velopark offers 11 parking spaces in total, 10 dedicated to bicycles and one space that will soon be available for cargo bikes.

This new service is part of the City of Mulhouse’s strategy to promote sustainable mobility. In recent years, the municipality has developed services, equipment, and dedicated infrastructure with the aim of facilitating everyday bicycle use across the city.

With the launch of this velopark, Mulhouse expands its network of secure bicycle parking solutions, offering a new option in a high-traffic area such as the Covered Canal Market and further improving bicycle accessibility to urban services.

The Don Cicleto app: the backbone of access and service management

Access to the velopark and user management are handled entirely through the Don Cicleto app, which allows users to register, select the service, choose their preferred pricing option, and manage parking digitally.

Two usage options are available:

  • Pay-per-use, with a tariff defined according to the parking duration, up to a maximum of 12 hours.
  • Monthly subscription, which grants a reserved parking space and unlimited access to the velopark for as long as the subscription remains active.

Thanks to Don Cicleto, the use of the velopark is simplified and meets all usage needs: cyclists visiting the Mulhouse market can park their bikes safely and free of charge for one hour, while residents or commuters can park their bikes according to their needs through the monthly subscription.

Don Cicleto’s technology as a driver of sustainable mobility

The implementation of this new velopark reinforces the role of digital technology as a key tool in the development of more sustainable urban mobility systems.

By integrating physical infrastructure with digital management, Don Cicleto enables cities to deploy secure, accessible bicycle parking services that are adapted to real usage patterns.

This model allows municipalities to encourage everyday cycling, optimize the management of public space, and move towards more efficient and environmentally friendly urban mobility systems.

Safe parking is holding back the sale and use of cargo bikes in Europe

We visited the International Cargo Bike Festival held in Utrecht (Netherlands) on October 12 and 13. After speaking with many of the exhibiting brands, we drew a clear common conclusion: there is a major barrier to purchasing cargo bikes, and that is storage. And that, of course, is one of our specialties.
