Interactive map in Tournai — bike parking.
A network still being built
The Tournaisis has around 130 recorded spots, a density well below that of a large urban area. They cluster, logically, around the station, the town centre and the main public buildings.
As everywhere, the stand remains the reference: it lets you lock the frame and a wheel. Racks, which hold only the front wheel, offer far less protection against theft.
A cross-border area
The Tournaisis is directly connected to the Lille metropolitan area, and many daily journeys cross the border. The RAVeL, the Walloon network of greenways, carries much of the leisure cycling.
Route planning does work here, unlike most of the other cities on this site: Sécu’Cycle can plan a safer route across the Tournaisis and towards the border.
Data and limitations
The survey comes from OpenStreetMap. Coverage is patchier than in France: an existing parking spot may simply never have been recorded. The absence of a marker does not prove the absence of a stand.
Frequently asked questions
- How many bike parking spots are recorded in Tournai?
- Around 130 spots are mapped across Tournai, Mouscron, Antoing, Estaimpuis, Leuze-en-Hainaut and Mont-de-l’Enclus.
- Is there secure bike parking at Tournai station?
- Sheltered spots are recorded around the station. Their exact nature — simple shelter or enclosed locker — is not always specified in the open data.
- Why are there fewer points than in Bordeaux?
- Both because the area is far less populated and because OpenStreetMap coverage there is less advanced. The map measures the data available, not what is on the ground.
- Can Sécu’Cycle plan a route to these parking spots?
- Yes. The Tournaisis is one of the two areas where route planning works, alongside Bordeaux.
