A big thumbs up to the City of Perth which provides bike parking facilities at its Elder Street car park in the Perth CBD - this means that cyclists, whether you are commuting to work by bike, or just coming in to the Perth CBD for leisure, have somewhere to park.

There are two entrances to this car park, with one entrance on Murray Street, and the other off Elder Street. For cyclists, note that there is a dedicated entrance for cyclists to access bicycle parking off Elder Street, with 54 bicycle bays available.

Once you get to the bicycle parking entrance, there are two turnstiles, one for your bicycle, and one which is a pedestrian access.
