It's nearly Walktober 2010

Walktober is just around the corner and it's a great time to think about choosing to walk to, part or all of the way to walk.

Many TravelSmart workplaces have incorporated strategies to encourage more sustainable modes of transport, such as using WalkSmart to promote and encourage walking.

Walktober is a great month of events dedicated to the promotion of walking across the community.

Make sure you update your goals on WalkSmart, put on your walking shoes and step to it next month.

Walktober is supporting local government, community groups and organisations to organise a range of walking activities for their community.

Last year over 500 events and 90,000 people participated in Walktober around the state. This year marks Walktober's fifth year encouraging people to mark October by stepping out more often.
