- Bikewise Month
- 13/02/2012
Traffic Design Group is supporting Bikewise month this February for the sixth year running.
Everyone within the company is encouraged to participate in one way or another with some regular cyclists undertaking mammoth kilometres, whilst others might be taking part for the very first time.
Each office has a local representative who devises different ways in which to get staff onto bikes, particularly on Wednesday 15 February, which is National 'Go By Bike Day'. For example, the Auckland office will be rewarding anyone who cycles to work with a free breakfast bap, and Bike Business (a local bike Shop) will be doing a free safety check, making sure the bikes are road-worth and making any necessary adjustmets.
Participation in Bikewise aligns with TDG's Travel Plan aim of targetting sustainable transportation practices.
