Since expanding our service area in Townsville earlier this year, more festival goers than ever before can ride Neuron to NAFA. The city’s month-long fringe festival is set to attract both locals and tourists alike, bringing a welcome boost to the local economy. 

During the NAFA, Neuron riders will benefit from priority parking at key festival locations including at the Tropic SoundS main entrance at Reid Park, NAFA Festival Hub main entrance at Jezzine Barracks on Jezzine Way east and NAFA Festival Hub entrance two at the corner of Isley Street and Mitchell Street. Riders who park in Neuron’s preferred parking locations will receive credits towards their next ride. 

With large crowds expected, Neuron anticipates a mix of new and existing riders to take up the service. To support riders throughout the festival, roving safety ambassadors will be deployed at key festival locations. Our team will also be holding in person #ScootSafe events with the opportunity for riders to visit our team, take a short safety briefing and earn a free $5 credit towards their next ride – that’s about 10 minute of free scooting!

 We have also teamed up with the cast of Rouge to remind riders how they can ride and park responsibly, check out their key safety tips in the below video. This video will be supported by a range of in-app messages to riders reminding them to wear a helmet, don’t drink and ride, and to always park responsibly at the end of their trip.
