The Active Travel program encourages all Gold Coast residents and visitors to 'change the way they move' and make Active Travel choices as part of their everyday lives.
This program supports the Gold Coast City Council’s Bold Future Corporate Plan 2009-2014 by encouraging people within the city to utilise alternative transport modes such as walking, cycling, car pooling and public transport.
The Active Travel program offers activities, incentives, resources and tips to improve the proportion of residents, businesses and visitors adopting sustainable living practices. The program aims to encourage active and healthy living through developing an integrated network of walking, cycling and public transport routes which link people to places, helping you easily incorporate Active Travel into your daily life for school, work, shopping and play!
