Secretary to the Committee Select Committee on Public and Active Transport, Parliament House, North Terrace, Adelaide SA 5000 Dear Sir/Madam, I believe the government have a significant role in enabling and encouraging active transport, currently we are seeing huge expenditure in supporting the use of motor vehicles at the expense of both the climate and community health and wellbeing.

If we are to encourage active transport for all its benefits, we need to design roads with active transport practitioners in mind.
