There are bicycle shelters around Amsterdam Central Station. In 2017, the underground bicycle shelter on the east side was renovated. Previously, there was room for 800 bicycles but after the renovation, this number was doubled to 1800 parking spaces. The station building has monumental status and there are rules to preserve the monumental parts.
The area of the bicycle shelter was increased by several square metres, which allowed for the installation of more Easylift two-tier bicycle racks. Because there was not enough space to install two-tier bicycle racks throughout the entire underground bicycle shelter, Variant bicycle racks were also installed.
