A series of bicycle thefts has resulted in a bike rack at a busy train station being taken out of action.
Watford Borough Council says the rack to the left of the Watford Junction entrance will not be in use due to a "number of" bikes being stolen.
Cyclists are instead being asked to use the secure custom-built bike facility, which is monitored by CCTV, at the side of platform 6.
The council said on Facebook: “Due to a number of bike thefts, the bike rack to the left of Watford Junction station entrance is being taken out of action.
“Cyclists are being asked to use the secure custom-built bike facility at the side of platform 6.
“This undercover facility has 300 spaces and is monitored by CCTV which feeds into the stations control room.”
The council has been approached for further details.
