Our Draft Walking and Cycling Strategy (pdf, 6MB) is a 10-year plan to get more people walking and cycling, especially for short trips.
Read a two page fact sheet that summarises the draft strategy.
The aims include:
- increasing the number of people who walk for trips of less than two kilometers and the people who cycle for trips of less than five kilometers
- prioritising walking and cycling in planning and decision-making processes across Council
- promoting walking and cycling as easy, healthy, inexpensive socially inclusive and an enjoyable way to travel
The draft strategy recommends that improvements to infrastructure be supported by programs to help people to walk and cycle more.
