We are building two park and ride facilities for the Kingboroug­h region.

One will be built in Huntingfie­ld near the Algona Road roundabout, and the other will be built on Browns Road in Firthside.

The park and ride facilities have been designed to be safe and inviting spaces, with better commuter parking and passenger transport services.

This supports the Hobart City Deal.
