THE VALUE OF PLANNING … for active transport

The COVID-19 crisis has changed many aspects of life we had taken for granted, including how we get around. For some, public transport is no longer an option, but does that mean always taking the car? We could ride or walk, but what about the hills and the heat?

The speakers, Greg Vann RPIA (Life Fellow), Director, Brisbane, Ethos Urban and Ludo Campbell-Reid, Director, City Design & Liveability, Wyndham City Council have a passion for and extensive experience in active transport and more balanced transport systems, here and abroad. They outline the benefits and articulate the challenges in achieving the cultural change that makes them effective and how obstacles have been overcome elsewhere in the world.
