Aims:
Living Streets Hamilton continues to campaign for safe road crossings to enable as many people as possible to walk between destinations in the city. We regularly present submissions to both Hamilton City Council and Waikato Regional Council to support pedestrian safety initiatives, and this is growing even more necessary in the face of current funding cuts at both local and national levels. We are particularly interested in getting safe walking routes to schools, as school traffic is a huge contributor to peak traffic congestion, which compromises everyone's safety on our roads. We also support any projects aimed at improving public transport, as efficient movement round a city generally requires a combination of walking (or cycling) and bus use.
