Surfers association welcomes disability parking

Central Coast Disabled Surfers Association has welcomed the incorporation of two dedicated disability parking spaces at the new carpark on the Umina dunes on the entry road to the caravan park.

The association said that this brings the total number of dedicated disability parking places around the beach to seven, with one near Jasmine Greens and four near the surf club.

"We are working with Council for increased temporary disability parking and drop off zone on event days as no further permanent places will be allocated to this area."
