Transit New Zealand, West Coast Councils and other agencies are working together to develop a regional walking and cycling strategy. This strategy aims to identify the level of walking and cycling already happening in the region, as well as establish the issues and future needs for increasing walking and cycling activity. We invite your feedback. Please give us your views on the strategy's possible vision, what issues or barriers currently exist for walking and cycling, and what opportunities there are for improvement. For more information, or for a copy of the feedback form, visit http://www.transit.govt.nz/planning/#west-coast-cycling-walking-strategy.jsp. Sumbissions close 30 May 2008.
