A little milestone passed last week – it was 20 years since we delivered the first Cycle Planning and Design industry training course back on 3 June 2003 in Christchurch! Things have certainly changed a bit in terms of content and delivery since then...

Huge congratulations and kudos to Wellington City Council on winning prestigious global recognition and prize money from (Global Designing Cities Initiative - Bloomfield Initiative for Cycling Infrastructure) for its city-wide cycle network that is currently being rolled out! Well deserved and the result of hard mahi by the Wellington team!

‘Design jam’ encourages kids to share their ideas to improve safety on road to school.

John Lieswyn of ViaStrada assisted by FNDC and Northland Transportation Alliance (NTA) recently led a fun and creative ‘design jam’ with local school children in Kerikeri.

John adapted the programme after attending and being inspired by a similar (Innovating Streets) event led by Clare Piper and run by Christchurch City Council. 

Two Advanced Cycle Intersection Design workshops are coming soon to NZ venues (please note new dates):

• Auckland (Mon 28 August)
• Christchurch (Tues 29 August)

Early-bird fees close on Tuesday 1st August - register now!
