London faces serious transportation challenges today. With congestion charges on the rise and increased awareness of the environmental impact of many forms of commuting, cities are turning to bicycle stations to ease traffic, reduce pollution, improve parking, and enhance a green-friendly image. Last summer, Paris joined the ranks, instituting a city-wide network of high-tech low-cost rental bicycle stations.

We ask the question: if London were to embrace this concept, how would it best go about doing so? Where should the bike stations go? How many bikes at each station?

Winning solutions will be presented to the Mayor of London with the hope that students’ recommendations will guide the way to helping London become a more liveable environment and the winning team will receive a prize of £1000 presented at a press conference with Emily Thornberry MP.
