"Kiss & Ride" In Peak Times Is Just A 'Park & Ride - No Kiss!'

Kiss & Ride in Mount Druitt, next door to Mount Druitt train station in North Parade is in  peak times  not used properly. 

Here is the Wikipedia meaning of "Kiss & Ride":

Etymology

From the idea that a person's partner might drop him or her off with a parting kiss
kiss and ride ‎(uncountable)
Kiss & Ride Zone, North Parade Mount Druitt
  1. (informal) A car park at a railway station, airport, etc. for the dropping off and picking up of passengers.
Pretty much, it is a special zone from  quick dropping off and picking up of people in busy areas. The  thing here is if you are parking at these zones you are blocking other people driving cars to pick up other people.

May I suggest that a proper 'Kiss & Ride" sign with explanation be placed in that  zone, otherwise it will be called 'Park  & Ride!" In other words, if you park there - don't park there - move on!
