Why walk?

Walking is the ultimate mode of transport. It's FREE, there are no parking worries, plus it keeps you fit. On any given day around Auckland, thousands of people walk to work, school, the shops and as part of their regular exercise plan.

Continuous development of a safe network of footpaths and walkways is vital to Auckland Transport's long term plan, of creating, a world class transport network . 

Let's populate our streets with people, not cars and bring our communities closer together.
