Walking - the policy picture
A key
target of the NZ Transport Strategy 2008 is that the mode share of walking and
cycling should grow to 30% by 2040. This target is linked to other key NZTS
targets, in particular to halve per capita greenhouse gas emissions from
transport by 2040 and to reduce single occupant vehicle travel (in major urban
areas on weekdays) by 10% by 2015.
