New Zealanders will be leaving their cars at home and taking to the pavement next week to celebrate World Carfree Day on the 22nd of September. Celebrated in over 1,500 cities worldwide, not only is it a great chance to save money on petrol and do something for your health, it also highlights how different our cities would be if more cars were off the roads.
Events are planned for a number of centres throughout New Zealand, so contact your local council to see what they’ve got planned.
World Carfree Day is organised by the World Carfree Network and is now in its ninth year. For more information, check out the World Carfree Day Website and Wiki.
