Hundreds Of City Car Parks Could Be Lost To Make Way For A Bikeway

The Adelaide City Council will consider a plan to remove almost four hundred parks to make room for an east-west bikeway along Pirie and Waymouth streets.

336 spaces for cars and 63 for motorbikes would be lost in the plan, which will be considered by council on Tuesday night.

Deputy Lord Mayor Alex Hyde has told The Advertiser the design is “outrageous”.

“It is going to mean people can’t get to where they need to go easily, it will mean businesses can’t take shipment for couriers and all sorts,” he told the paper. “Adelaide is a driving city, most people drive, we cannot be disadvantaging the majority of people to service only a few.”
