Walking
Walking is a convenient, healthy and environmentally-friendly transport option for getting to where you need to go. It's a great way to see your local area and is probably quicker than you think.
During COVID, we've all learned the importance of having quality and accessible walking infrastructure to get around and maintain our health. Most of us walk at some point during our commute to work or travel to weekend activities.
Walking is a great way to start and finish your public transport journey. For a healthy start to your day, why not get off the bus early and finish your trip in the fresh air?

Bike riding
The NSW Government is committed to promoting cycling as a viable transport choice. In NSW, Australia, and around the world, more and more people are now riding bikes to and from work and for leisure. Bike riding is efficient, convenient, healthy, environmentally-friendly and most importantly fun.
Whether you’re exploring your local neighbourhood, travelling around NSW or simply getting to and from public transport, riding a bike is a good way to get around, and it helps reduce traffic and congestion in our cities.
If you're a beginner or an expert rider visit TfNSW Trip planner to plan a bike journey.
