Barclays Cycle Hire Scheme

This Scheme means you can now hire a bike for short journeys round central London.

If you use the scheme a lot, it pays to become a member but the bikes are available for casual hire.

For full information, see the relevant pages on the Transport for London website.

If you choose to cycle as part of your journey to the Department, here’s a list of the closest docking stations to the London’s mainline stations, Underground stations and to our offices. See Barclays Cycle Hire map for details.
