I Found The Other Bicylcle Stand/Rack at Westfield Mount Druitt (2nd One!)

I was searching for more than one new bicycle stand that has been installed to help cycling shoppers at Westfield Mount Druitt and it is actually a bicycle stand and rack itself. Guess where I found the 2nd one? West of the entrance to Coles!

Itself, it is a work of art and it grabs your attention - well it grabs mine!





Again, Westfield Mount Druitt has been making Mount Druitt better and improved in a small way and these are steps in the right direction, to start making those necessary improvements that will make a greater and better place for all of us to live in.

Again Westfield Mount Druitt must be congratulated for caring for our shopping cyclists!

Westfield Mount Druitt Responds To Cycle Racks Published Post!

Well, well, well after hundreds of published posts - each post emailed to Westfield Mount Druitt, we have  a finally response. Which is good news. If  it means they don't respond, it could mean they don't care, pending their response it means firstly, they are interested and  possibly wanting to listen to the community.

So in relation to requested to Cycle Racks requested at Westfield Mount Druitt Click here for details, this is their positive response:

Westfield Mt Druitt Hi Jean-Francois, aside from the Cycle Racks located on Dawson Mall, there are possible opportunities to plan for more. There are a few elements we need to consider to ensure the safety of cyclist and pedestrian egress within the car park. We thank for your raising this, and hope to provide an update in due course.
Kind regards Westfield Mt Druitt

And here is my response:

Jean-Francois Svoboda That is good to get positive feed back - you could look at Bicycle Lockers - like NSW Transport has! Where exactly are the cycle racks in Dawson Mall in the Westfield area - I think there's one near the taxi stand? You could look at shared pathways with pedestrians from Luxford Road, North Parade and Carlisle Avenue and ample signage to major entrances to be seen!

Editors notes: I can wait for their response!

Bicylces at Westfield Mount Druitt Parked Anywhere - We Still Need Bicycle Racks For Cycling Shoppers!

Spotted the other day, bicycles  parked right on the side of the trolley bays, at Westfield Mount Druitt. It is quite amusing that  I am publish another post on bicycles being parked anywhere as  Westfield Mount Druitt, ignored previous posts published last year.

Time and time again, there is that ignorance of not moving ahead with suggested improvements at Westfield, Mount Druitt. Maybe once we keep pushing posts like this they will turn their heads up and listen!

We Could Have Cycle Racks That Are Modern In Westfield Mount Druitt Car Park And Other Community Amenities!

This  Bicycle rack is based in Parramatta, in Church Street. You will notice how the metal piece has been been used as a  modern sculptured artwork  that fits into today's society and community.

If the same type of designed  bicycle rack is provided to the community at Westfield Mount Druitt and other local shopping Centers and or parks and gardens, this will be a great concept to be used as part of the Bicycle plan of Blacktown City Council Integrated Transport Management Plan.
