Vote for cycleways

The Greens will:

1. Provide free passage on public transport for bicycles;

2. Develop a safe, secure network of on-road and off-road cycling routes, bicycle parking and end trip facilities; and

3. Allocate at least 5% of the state roads budget to, and remove from control of the RTA, bicycle programs in NSW.

While other states are investing in bicycle lanes, programmes and facilities to support and promote cycling as a healthy lifestyle and transport option, successive Sydney Labor governments have reneged on promises to deliver safer and better cycling infrastructure in Newcastle and across the State.
