Parramatta City Council and Bicycle NSW reinforced their partnership to increase active transport use and support those already using active transport in the Parramatta local government area by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) today (22 February 2010). The MOU was signed by Parramatta City Council CEO Rob Lang and Bicycle NSW CEO Elizabeth Hole.Council has already invested significant resources to implement a network of safe bicycle routes and facilities for all cyclists throughout the area. This MOU will assist in meeting Council’s objective to have 5% of the population riding a bicycle to work by 2021. “Parramatta City Council recognises the health and environmental benefits of cycling as both a mode of transport and for physical activity,” said Parramatta City Council Lord Mayor Cr Paul Garrard.“Riding to work is not only a healthier option, it is a great way to save on costs, escaping traffic snarls and at the same time doing good for the environment by reducing your carbon footprint,” he said. The MOU commits Parramatta City Council and Bicycle NSW to mutually promote, lobby and provide for active transport, particularly cycling, throughout the area.
