17 to 23 June 2024 - Better Transport Week
Sustainable transport does amazing things. It shrinks traffic jams, cleans up our air and tackles climate change. It improves our health and boosts our economy. It connects us to the things that matter.
So it’s time to celebrate! Better Transport Week is an annual celebration of the transport that makes our lives better. Supported by over 100 partners and sponsors, the week is for anyone and everyone who cares about transport.
From discussion events to a beach picnic and the chance to visit country pubs by bus, find out about events planned for the week

22 September 2024 - World Carfree Day
Every year on or around 22 September, people from around the world get together in the streets to remind the world that we don’t have to accept our car-dominated society.
But we do not want just one day of celebration and then a return to "normal" life. When people get out of their cars, they should stay out of their cars. It is up to us, it is up to our cities, and our governments to help create permanent change to benefit pedestrians, cyclists, and other people who do not drive cars.
Let World Carfree Day be a showcase for just how our cities might look like, feel like, and sound like without cars for 365 days a year.
As the climate heats up, World Carfree Day is the perfect time to take the heat off the planet, and put it on city planners and politicians to give priority to cycling, walking and public transport, instead of to the automobile.
So take the time, browse the links and resources provided here, and join in on the celebrations!
