The City is proud to be the first local government in Western Australia to introduce the 'Recharge Scheme'. The scheme allows community members to charge their motorised mobility devices, such as scooters and electronic wheelchairs, at community venues, local businesses and City-owned buildings identified as ‘recharge points’. The City works closely with businesses to ensure designated areas meet the safety and access requirements.
Recharge points in the City of Subiaco are:
- Subiaco Library, 237 Rokeby Road, Subiaco
- Earthwise, 315 Bagot Road, Subiaco
- Lords Recreation Centre, 3 Price Street, Subiaco.
Recharge point stickers are displayed on the windows of participating businesses, as well as above or near the designated power points for easy identification. If you are interested in your business becoming a recharge point, please contact the City on 9237 9222.
