Woy Woy now has 90 bike lockers

The NSW Ministry of Transport and Gosford Council have installed bike lockers at the Woy Woy commuter car park, the northern and southern concourses of the railway station, and west of the Charlton St roundabout.

Gosford Council claims "the highest number of bike lockers for public use in NSW, with 90 lockers now installed at four Woy Woy locations".

"The lockers protect bikes against vandalism, theft and weather extremes and can be hired for 50 cents a day," said Gosford mayor Cr Laurie Maher.

"We now have 142 bike lockers across Gosford City, located at Point Clare, Niagara Park, Lisarow and Narara railway stations as well as at four Woy Woy locations.

"This will encourage commuters to cycle to a railway station and secure their bikes for their return journey."

Council stated that commuters who cycle part of their way to work will help cut greenhouse gas emissions while improving their fitness levels.
