If elected to represent Puketāpapa, I, Daniel Cliffords, pledge:
I believe people of all ages should feel able to bike safely to get around. Auckland needs more climate-friendly transport to ensure a sustainable and resilient Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, protecting our environment and communities for future generations. If elected, I commit to making a safe, connected cycle network a priority.
Comments
Transport is key to a healthy community. Everyone should have the ability to choose how they get around, and everyone should have the right to get there safely.
Through investment is public transport, walking, and cycling infrastructure we can make getting around safer, more accessible, and make a real dent in our emissions profile.
