About Us 

Our mission...  Cycle Action's aim is to making cycling safer and easier in Auckland.  We'd like to see more Aucklanders choosing to cycle for daily transport and recreation.

We believe that cycling has an important part to play in the transport mix for Auckland. Cycling is fast for shorter trips - and two thirds of all car trips in NZ are less than 6 km long - as well as being cheap and energy efficient. It's an effective way to combat congestion, pollution, and the huge health problems caused by physical inactivity, all at once.

What do we do?

A big part of our work is in lobbying local councils and transport agencies who have the ultimate responsibility the cycling environment in Auckland. 

We're working on these key projects:

 We provide the councils with input and advice on what cyclists really need, and alert them to the problems faced by cyclists now. We also lobby other organisations- e.g. public transport operators and businesses, for improvements that can make cyclists' lives easier.

We hold monthly meetings and run other events from time to time. We're also happy to provide advice on routes and other practical tips on Auckland cycling- just ask us.

Most of our work is done on a voluntary basis- we're supported by membership subscriptions, donations and lots of keen people donating bits of their spare time.

You can help us by joining up and getting involved!

We are affiliated to the Cycling Advocates' Network (CAN), NZ's national voice for cycling.
