Safe storage locker for bicycle at Southern Cross Station, Melbourne?

G’day all,
I’m travelling from Wollongong to Melbourne with 2 duffel bags and my bicycle with pannier bags. In Melbourne I’ll be staying with some friends, but it’s a bit of an inconvenience to travel with all this baggage on the metro trains and the bicycle in tow.
Hence, I was wondering if there are any bike lockers which I could hire for a day or two at Southern Cross station itself, and how much might this cost?
Even if there are no bike lockers, are there bike stands where I can lock it for 1-2 days?
Any other ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,

I’ve never seen them but this is from the Metlink website:

Lockers are available in the following locations:

* the Southern Cross Coach Terminal
* next to the V/Line Luggage area, below the Bourke Street Bridge
* adjacent to Platform 7a.

The fee for locker hire starts at $8 all day. No reservations are required.

View the map of Southern Cross Station for locker locations. http://www.metlinkmelbourne.com.au/maps-stations-stops/southern-cross-station/#5

I’m not sure how big they are or if you can keep a bike in them. There would probably be bike racks somwhere but I don’t think that would be very safe to leave it there for days. Bike racks are usually on the outside of train stations like that, near the carparks.

Call 131 638 (6am – midnight daily) for information about metropolitan and regional train, tram, bus and coach services and bookings.

Goodluck!
