Bendigo Advertiser letters to the editor

February 10 2018 - 2:00am

I grew up in Bendigo in the 70s then lived in Melbourne for the next 30 years. I visited "home", that is Bendigo, at least 10 times a year often with several others in tow and for extended periods of time. Perhaps you could market Bendigo CBD for what it is: A big beautiful provincial country city. It is a gem. Get rid of paid parking in the CBD. I always avoid the CBD when I return for this very reason. We all want a relaxing outing, or a quick zip around to different shops but are blocked with the hassle of having to keep filling metres. I loathe it so don’t bother. I recently chose Albury Wodonga to relocate to. I love it: Fantastic big provincial city feel. No parking metres exist and it has the same big shopping centre like Market Place away from the CBD.
