The Locky Docks are here!

The Team from Whangarei District Council

This is a nifty and free way to securely park a bike, and it can even charge up your batteries. Works for mobility scooters too! ⚡🚲

Contractors are installing 10 parking stations in popular spots around the city. They can be used with or without registration - you just need an electronic key (any electric door key, or a Bee Card, a purpose-made Locky Dock card, or the "Bikeep" app on a smartphone). Instructions are on the machines.

With the Kamo Shared Path extended, new parking options, and new facilities being installed at Raumanga Reserve, this could be an epic summer of cycling. Hop on if you can!
