Brockenhurst Parish Council removed the cycle racks in Brookley Road in late May 2023 following damage sustained in a traffic incident. The cycle racks, located outside of Tesco Express, were hit over the Bank holiday weekend and once the damage was reported the racks were taped closed. The tape was subsequently removed by cyclists parking their bikes. Despite continued heavy demand for their use over the Bank holiday period the cycle racks have been removed due to health and safety concerns.

The delayed Brookley Road scheme which would see these cycle racks relocated is subject to drainage redesign to resolve issues including pooling of water although the scheme is still likely to go ahead in the autumn.
