GoGet in car and see Illawarra

Two hybrids and a wheelchair accessible vehicle will be available in dedicated parking bays at the Wollongong train station from Monday 4 December for a six-month trial.

It follows an ongoing GoGet trial at Katoomba Station which sees 4 in 5 GoGet bookings made by visitors who are keen to explore the Blue Mountains region.

Transport for NSW will use both trials in Wollongong and Katoomba to assess usage by visitors and the local community and consider the next steps for integrated car share options at intercity and regional stations.

By catching a train from Central, then picking up a GoGet at Wollongong rather than driving the whole way, passengers will save 43,860kg of C02 emissions. It means more people can make the most of travelling to Wollongong on our green-electricity-powered rail network.
