Government Trying To Have A Buck Each Way On Transport - Media release
: 16 May 2022Living Streets Aotearoa, the national walking advocacy group, has welcomed some good news for pedestrians in the new Emissions Reduction Plan, but called on the Government to act faster and go further to decarbonise transport. Living Streets Aotearoa Vice-President Tim Jones said “In the race to decarbonise our society and economy by 2050, the years between now and 2030 are crucial, because that’s when the steepest emissions reductions need to happen. And transport, especially in cities, is the sector we can decarbonise fastest – but only if we take the right steps.”

Sad news today
: 9 Jul 2021We are all reeling today from the news that President of Living Streets Aotearoa, Andy Smith has died. Our walking tõtara has fallen.
He was such a collaborative person with many interests and friends that we know this will affect many of you. Andy really committed himself to the common good as well as having fun along the way.
He always said we are here for the long haul, and so we will continue on our path.
We will let you know when we have any details about funeral arrangements.
