The tram stop barrier at the corner of Budapesti körút and Makkosházi körút is constantly seen as a bicycle parking space, and our readers have written to us about this issue. We asked Szeged Transport about the matter, and they told us that attaching two-wheelers to the platform railing is not prohibited, as long as it does not impede tram and passenger traffic at the station. Moreover, the response letter from SZKT also revealed whether a solution to the problem of insufficient storage space was expected.
As our readers have pointed out, the tram stop barrier at the corner of Budapesti körút and Makkosházi körút streets is constantly seen as a bicycle parking space. As you can see in our photo, storage space on site has proven insufficient, so bikes are constantly locked on the fence surrounding the tram station.
Those who lock their bikes at the platform barrier are not prohibited
In this regard, we asked the transport company Szeged how regularly those who attach their two-wheelers in this way are, and whether they plan to expand the current storage. In the reply letter from SZKT, he wrote that A
It is not forbidden to attach a bicycle to the platform railing – as long as it does not impede tram and passenger traffic at the station.
The extension request has been sent to the authorities
Furthermore, they added that SZKT is not the builder and operator of the bicycle storage facility, so they cannot comment on its expansion. However, the application has been transferred to the municipality for consideration in the upcoming bicycle storage program.
