In addition to the more than 1,000 spaces in the bicycle parking garage (west side), there are over 700 additional parking spaces around the forecourt area (main entrance on the east side) at the main station for secure bicycle parking. These are available free of charge and more than 250 of them are covered.
- More than 450 parking spaces between Alicenbrücke and the main building (at track 1)
- More than 250 parking spaces with access via Kaiser-Wilhelm-Ring (at track 13)
The construction of bicycle parking facilities at the main station was made possible as part of Deutsche Bahn's Bike & Ride Offensive with funding from the National Climate Protection Initiative. The aim of the funding measures is to install 1,000 additional Bike+Ride facilities in cities and municipalities throughout Germany.
National Climate Protection Initiative:

Its programs and projects cover a wide range of climate protection activities: from the development of long-term strategies to concrete assistance and investment support measures. This diversity guarantees good ideas. The National Climate Protection Initiative contributes to anchoring climate protection locally. Consumers, companies, municipalities, and educational institutions all benefit from it. The project is listed under the code 67K13595 and will run until April 2022.
