Story
As we emerge from lock down towns and cities are facing a dilemma: we need social distancing on public transport to keep those who need it safe, but this risks streets becoming even more clogged with cars than they were before the Coronavirus outbreak.
More cars means more toxic air, more climate wrecking carbon emissions, more road deaths, more noise, longer traffic jams for essential workers - and less public space. Yet, if people pile back onto trains and buses, those who need to use them - including key workers - and those who work on them will be put at risk.
But there is another way. For those who can, its time to stride & ride.
Walking, jogging, cycling, skating, scooting, blading, rolling, wheeling, skipping. Together, by choosing to stride or ride from A to B we can keep public transport safe, keep carbon emissions down, and keep our key workers moving.
As part of your commitment to active travel, will you pledge to walk, jog, cycle or scoot 100 kilometres in a month?
