Council works to improve and maintain assets across our city that help people of all ages and abilities get around. This includes active transport options like walking and cycling, as well as driving and public transport.
Facilities
We build and maintain local footpaths, shared paths, cycleways and roads.
Our transport program also includes traffic facilities such as public car parks, bus stops, roundabouts, pedestrian crossings, street signs, some traffic signals, speed cushions and other road safety features.
In recent years, we've also added more 'end of journey' facilities, like bike parking, water stations and similar features to support more people to ride and walk.
Information and education
We have several programs to help people be safer riders, drivers and walkers. Our road safety programs include education for learner drivers, cyclists, and people driving around school zones.
Wollongong is also proud to be the first city in the southern hemisphere to become a UCI Bike City. This label recognises our long-term commitment to cycling, and educating people about the many benefits of riding bikes.
Working with other agencies
Council is not the only authority that looks after transport in our city.
We work with several other agencies who are also responsible for managing transport in our region, such as Transport for NSW, Police and local bus companies.
