Transportation 2040: Vancouver’s Blueprint for Sustainable Transport, with lessons for Wellington
Public presentation
Wednesday 4 July, 6:30-7:30pm
Sustainability Trust, 2 Forresters Lane, Te Aro (off Tory St) Wellington
Hosted by Congestion-Free Wellington
Wellington is facing major transport and land-use choices as we decide on the Let's Get Wellington Moving process. Will we choose a compact, low-carbon city supported by world-class public transport, walking and cycling? Or will we choose tunnels, flyovers and sprawl?
How have other cities made progress? Learn more in this public presentation from Dale Bracewell, Vancouver's transport manager.
Transportation 2040 is Vancouver’s high-level vision for all modes of transport, with specific mobility and safety goals. Vancouver achieved its interim target of 50 percent of all daily trips by sustainable modes, and is on track to achieve two-thirds of all daily trips by walking, cycling and public transport in 2040.
The presentation will include learnings from Dale’s experiences applied to Wellington.
