Community consultation opens on access and parking strategy

The community and stakeholders are invited to have their say on a Redland City Council draft transport strategy that provides a blueprint for managing access and parking as Redlands Coast prepares for future growth.

Mayor Jos Mitchell said the Draft Redlands Coast Access and Parking Strategy was open for comment from today until 31 August, 2025.

“This is the third in a series of strategies relating to transport that we are taking to the community for their input,” the Mayor said.

“Council’s Access and Parking Strategy suggests destinations can be made more inviting and safer for pedestrians, cyclists, and people with disabilities, while also improving access for drivers through well-managed parking areas.

“Allocating space for public transport, drop offs and ride share may further enhance access and encourage greater use of these modes.”

The Draft Redlands Coast Access and Parking Strategy was endorsed by Council at the June General Meeting this year.

Transport Portfolio Representative Councillor Shane Rendalls said the draft strategy was about giving people better choices and making sure the city’s destinations were safer, more inviting, and easier to access by all modes of transport.

“The strategy seeks ways to improve the efficiency of car parking in the city to reflect people’s access needs,” Cr Rendalls said.
