Active transport

I will move that this House congratulates everyone that took part in Ride to Work Day.

We’re here at a real moment for active transport: there’s a shared and growing understanding about the importance of giving people options for how they move around our cities and towns. 

On 3 June it is World Bicycle Day, a great reminder of how supporting cycling and alternative modes of transport can transform cities and communities.

The Government continues to ignore the calls from parents and the Petersham Public School community for upgrades to the West Street and Railway Terrace intersection. 

The community at our local schools have had enough of the lack of concern for students on their way to school and the severely insufficient safety measures currently in place.

NSW Labor will commit $700,000 to support Dungog become a world-class biking destination and boost tourism across the Upper Hunter.

National Walk Safely to School Day raises awareness about the benefits of walking to school.

Despite the decrease in commuters as a result of the pandemic bicycle and scooter users are struggling to find spaces to safely store their devices at train stations across the Central Coast.

I congratulate the Bicycle Network and all the students, families and schools that took part in National Ride2School Day.
