The draft Motorcycle Strategy and Action Plan will ensure that the City of Sydney equitably accommodates the needs of motorcycle and scooter riders, and removes barriers to riding in the City of Sydney.
Motorcycle and scooter ownership and use is growing rapidly in metropolitan Sydney, and in the City of Sydney. Motorcycles are an enjoyable, fuel efficient, convenient and lower cost alternative to private cars, and are well suited to the City of Sydney’s higher density neighbourhoods.
In developing the draft Motorcycle and Scooter Strategy and Action Plan, the City has consulted with riders and motorcycle groups, including the Motorcycle Council of NSW. The City surveyed more than a thousand riders, advertised the development of the strategy in motorcycle and scooter publications, and reviewed extensive rider correspondence to the City.
The draft Motorcycle and Scooter Strategy is on public exhibition until Monday 22 September 2008.
During this period, you can obtain a copy of the draft Strategy at the following locations:
