Active Transportation

Active transportation modes such as walking and cycling can help make our cities cleaner, more resilient, and better places to live, work and play.

For Safe, comfortable and convenient travel

Active transportation has become an important part of urban planning, especially as we move away from our reliance on cars. Successful active transport connects communities to cities and public transport alternatives helping to create places that are safe, comfortable, and convenient for people to travel on foot or by bicycle.
