Living Streets-hosted innovative project, Greening the Rubble, is celebrating its first year in Christchuch with an award from the Civic Trust. Several mini parks are complete, others under construction, by a growing team of volunteers.
GetAcross is a campaign that has been lobbying and advocating for cyclists and walkers to get across the Auckland Harbour Bridge. LSA have been involved in supporting Getacross since its beginning. Its is a great project and will transform the way people use the bridge and connect our communities. Most importantly it will give a transport choice in these uncertain times.
On the Greening the Rubble project's website you will see how this project is making a difference in Christchurch despite the continuing earthquakes and aftershocks. Go to: http://www.greeningtherubble.org.nz
Join us for a discussion on the importance of pedestrians to community resilience. We'll look at transport innovator David Engwichts work and discuss how we can promote resilience.
Walk2Work Day is part of a Living Streets campaign that aims to encourage people to walk more in their daily lives. Walking events are held before work in locations close to main walking routes, targeting people who have walked all or part of the way to work.
