ViaStrada e-news | Summer 2025-26 edition

A belated Happy New Year everyone!

Hope you’re all enjoying the summer despite the up-and-down weather (it was certainly very wet at Ed Sheeran…). We’ve had a busy and exciting season here at ViaStrada—celebrating our 20‑year milestone, welcoming intern Finn Blanchard for the summer, and wrapping up some great projects and conference talks. Christchurch even topped the Asia–Oceania rankings for bike‑friendly cities, which we’re pretty stoked about.

We’ve pulled together a quick round‑up of what we’ve been up to and what’s coming next. If you’re heading to any of the upcoming industry events, come say hi!
