WestCycle Subscriber e-News: March
Latest happenings from the peak body for all forms of riding and rolling in Western Australia.
We work with government, industry and community members to advocate for everyone to be able to enjoy safe and convenient access to riding and all the benefits that come with it.
More people riding benefits the whole community. Individuals benefit from better physical and mental health, increased opportunities for social connection, and saving money (and often time) when riding for transport. These individual benefits in turn create stronger, more resilient communities. When the built environment is developed to support people to use bikes and eRideables for transport, everyone benefits from cleaner air, safer streets and a more vibrant and inclusive society.
