R U COMMUTING HEALTHY TRANSPORT

R U Commuting promotes Healthy Transport to local communities across Queensland, NSW, ACT and Northern Territory.

R U Commuting aims to increase the use of cycling for everyday transport and to promote public awareness about cycling and walking as an activity that has many economic, health and environmental benefits.

Healthy travel is an easy and accessible way for people to include physical activity in daily lives. The most common forms of healthy travel are walking and cycling – the easiest approach to travelling short distances like commuting to work or school.

R U Commuting is currently launching various programs across Queensland which will target towards increasing the number of people choosing to use Healthy Transport.

These programs include Fit2BKids School Program, Pink Pedal Power (Women’s only Events and Workshops) and Smart Commuting.

These programs engage with schools, workplaces and women to break down the barriers to get more people cycling and walking in their community.

R U Commuting aims to communicate this message to employees, employers, schools, government agencies and communities and to directly engage with all shareholders in evaluating what benefits can be gained from an improved network of shared bike lanes and end of trip facilities.

R U Commuting is specialised in School/workplace healthy travel plans, lobbying for end of trip facilities, conducting school/workplace cycling skills sessions and cycling events.

   

Commuting Program
The aim of R U Commuting, Healthy Transport Smart Commuting program is “to bring about a sustained change in the number of people using active travel for journeys to and from work”.

The Smart Commuting Program is a behaviour change program targeted at addressing two key issues in society today – physical activity levels and climate change.

The Smart Commuting program engages businesses and their employees to break down the barriers to more people choosing to cycle or walk all or part of their journey to and from the workplace.Whether as individuals, community members, road users or employees, we all have a responsibility to be responsive and alert to the issues facing society today - in particular climate change and health. Cycling and Walking have a positive impact on both these issues. The Smart Commuting program provides guidance and support to workplaces in developing and expanding their cycling culture and equips employees with the ability to cycle or walk safely to work.
