Woombye’s role as a public transport node will be improved by the planned rail line upgrade. A park and ride site exists at the rail station but requires expansion to match current demand.
Council will undertake a review of parking signage and line marking, continue to monitor the performance of parking in the area and consider options to improve parking in line with the policies set out in council’s Parking Management Plan.
