Cycling through the pandemic

Due to a temporary decrease in public transport during the current pandemic, MAPD have noted more staff from our hospital sites have started cycling to work, or walking to their public transport connections.

We have seen quite an increase in the number of staff accessing the bike facilities across three of our sites - Royal Perth, King Edward Memorial and Fremantle Hospitals, and we are currently in the planning stages of extending our King Edward bike facility to double its capacity.

With our beautiful autumn weather we hope this will encourage staff to keep up cycling and walking as a form of commuting to the workplace into the future.
