We are looking forward to our national day to celebrate walking - once again to be held on the second Wednesday in March 2023.

Where - all over Aotearoa New Zealand

This year Walk2Work Day follows the New Zealand Census day so we are focussing on Walking Counts. Share how far, how many steps, how high or low, how everyday or unique your walk is on 8 March.

HAS DCC TRANSPORT DECLARED AN OPEN SEASON ON PEDESTRIANS?
Is this a fair question? Come along and share your views at Dunedin’s Pedestrian Action Network (PAN) public meeting on Wednesday 24 January, 1.30 to 3.00pm,
Dunningham Suite, Dunedin Public Library.

Join us for a Sunday afternoon spring cleaning the Grafton Road to Maida Vale Road steps, Roseneath - the longest stretch of steps in Wellington. These fabulous steps have become overgrown over winter and need a brush up to be ready for the spring and summer foot traffic down to the Balaena Bay beach. Bring your broom or weeder along and lend a hand with your neighbours - or just come along for a chat.
