Let Transport Month change your life

October is national Transport Month and, with better weather arriving, this is the season to make a switch to more sustainable ways of getting around. With fuel prices on the rise again to the highest level in three years, opting for public transport, a bicycle or simply walking more makes financial sense.

By avoiding the frustrations of driving a private car on our increasingly congested roads, and getting more exercise, you’ll also reap the benefits in terms of your physical and mental health.

Join in the spirit of Transport Month and explore your travel options. Start small by leaving your car at home for one or two days a week and, who knows, it may lead to a permanent change. If more Capetonians adopt alternative transport modes, the collective impact on our roads and environment will be significant.
