Cycling advocates award Fellowship to improve community accountability
- Cycle Wellington
- Cycle Wellington has awarded the Alastair Smith Memorial Fellowship for 2021-22 to Jonathan Coppard. The Fellowship is dedicated to furthering the work of veteran Wellington cycling advocate, Alastair Smith, who passed away in November 2019. It has a value of $5000. Jonathan Coppard's project will improve the inclusivity and diversity of cycling advocacy. “Unfortunately for many decades now, Wellington's street environment has been so hostile to cyclists that only a few people feel able to ride bikes,” he says. “This has led to a situation where cycling activism is unrepresentative of the wider Wellington community. We need to do better.” “We are now starting to see a change in both the physical and cultural approach to streets. Bike lanes are changing the street environment so that more people feel able to ride a bike. It is essential that Cycle Wellington changes at the same time so that we are representative of the people we advocate for, and can contribute to the work required to address inequalities in Wellington.”

Bike lanes are climate action, say cycling advocates
- Cycle Wellington
- Wellington plans to build a 147 km network of bike lanes are an effective way to take climate action, say cycling advocates, but they must be built much faster.
