Bike Wash and maintenance station for bicycles
The municipality of Mamer has two solutions for maintaining the bikes of cycling enthusiasts.
New bike wash
This new bike wash is particularly environmentally friendly and sustainable. The system uses very little water and energy. The bike is cleaned along the rotating brush. In this way, the bike is manually inserted into the machine. As a result, the duration and intensity of the wash will be adjusted according to the level of dirt.
The station is normally located on the premises of the recycling centre in Mamer (7b Route de Dippach L- 8225 Mamer). It is open to the public during the centre’s opening hours: Tuesday to Friday from 9am to 6pm, and Saturday from 9am to 1pm. Use of the CycleWash station is free of charge. The facility operates with a free magnetic card, which is available from the Energy, Environment and Mobility Service (SEEM) or the Commune Technical Service during opening hours of 8.00am to 11.30am and 1.30pm to 4.30pm, Monday to Friday.
Step-by-step instructions are displayed on the installation itself. Cleaning takes about three minutes. All types of bike, including electrically assisted bikes (EABs), can be cleaned in the CycleWash. All the waste water is collected in a retention basin and then disposed of in the appropriate way.
Equipped with castors, the maintenance station can also be moved for events.
The washing and maintenance station
In addition to the CycleWash, the local authority has also installed a fixed washing station behind the Nic. Frantz sports hall in Mamer. The station is equipped with two water jets, an air pump and a number of tools for minor repairs. This station is accessible at all times.
