Reply to comment by SubjectiveAlbatross in Amsterdam’s underwater parking garage fits 7,000 bicycles and zero cars by Ok_Champion6840

65m could revamp every bike parking in the country. This was for one facility.

How else was a 7000 space facility going to be built in that area? Its sleek, modern, and hidden away as infrastructure like that should. It's a 65M investment for something that should be around for 100 years

Bike storage towers. Cheap and easy to roll out. Mass storage with no additional distance to utilize facility itself.

Yes, and then you've got a bike tower in the middle of one of the most picturesque cities in the world.

I doubt they would build a 65M underground bike park in the suburbs, but in the middle of the city it's understandable

No it can't. Hard to find the number of parking spots in the entire country, but there are something like 23 million bicycles in the Netherlands. It's not going to be even close.
