Auckland Transport is gearing up for an increase in motorcycle and scooter use by inner city commuters.
While a sharp increase in public transport patronage is well-documented, an increasing number of people are also using two wheels to get to their destination.
As a result Auckland Transport has added free, dedicated, motorcycle and scooter parking areas to its CBD parking buildings, in addition to existing bicycle parking areas. Previously motorbikes and scooters had to simply park in “an unused area”, says AT’s Parking Facilities Manager, Kevin Enderby.
There is also a dedicated entry lane for motorbikes at Downtown car park, which complements the 112 dedicated spaces.
The Civic car park has also been fitted out with more motorcycle and scooter parking and Victoria Street carpark will be developed in the near future.
