Victoria Police bike patrol with Council staff

L - R: Snr Sergeant Gavin Ryan, Cr Mary O’Kane, A/Sergeant Amy Johnson, Mayor Cr Alison Champion, A/Inspector Tim Noisette, Snr Constable Jesse Francis.

We are pleased to partner with Victoria Police on a safety initiative for Banyule by providing four bikes for the new Heidelberg Bike Patrol Unit.

The bikes will help police connect with the community and access areas where vehicles cannot  go, such as pedestrian zones like the Bell Street Mall in Heidelberg West.

We purchased the bikes from local business Peak Cycles and Victoria Police are providing the staff and resourcing.
