The Parramatta Bike Plan 2024 has been endorsed by Parramatta Council following months of consultation across the local government area. The plan will help deliver almost 20 kilometres of new bike paths from now until 2027, with a greater focus on safety and education, improved accessibility, connectivity and facilities.

“Parramatta wants to embrace active transport across our city,” City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Esber explained. “More and more of us are jumping on our bikes to get around and we want to encourage more people to get out of the car and onto a bike to get to work, school and to go shopping."

“Council has set a target to increase bike transportation to at least 5 percent of all work trips, and 10 percent of those ending in Parramatta CBD by 2043 and the Bike Plan helps us achieve this goal."

The 2024 Plan is a major update to the 2017 version and responds to significant changes with land use, new cycling infrastructure such as the Carlingford to Parramatta Active Transport link, increased population, and changes to NSW Government policies.
