If you usually commute by car, why not try coming to work or study a different way on Friday? 

Bus

Grab a Bee Card from OPSA if you haven’t already got one. Register it, add some credit and hop on the bus. 

With a Bee Card, fares are only:

  • $1 for 19-24 year olds
  • $2 for everyone 25 years + 

Bike

If you don’t have a bike, you can grab yourself a pre-loved one at one of the community cycle workshops (Crooked Spoke on Moray Place or the Valley Cycle Workshop in North-East Valley). 

Did you know? All urban buses have racks for bikes on the front that you can use for free. So, if you live up a hill, or the weather changes, it’s easy to mix and match. 

Walk

Walking is super beneficial for both your mental and physical health. There are so many lovely walkways around Dunedin. You could walk to campus one way and plan a different route home! 

Carpool

And if you really can’t manage without the car, why not try carpooling to reduce the number of cars on the road?
