Lots of cars on a motorway

Is Owning a Car Still worth it?
With the many transport alternatives available in Auckland – Could you manage without a car? Does your household really need two cars? Is it now possible to live car-free?

Does your car spend most of its life parked up and unused?
With parking issues, traffic congestion and environmental concerns – is it time to start considering alternatives in Auckland?

Come along and ponder these questions with a panel of transport experts.
Please bring along your real life journeys for our panel to ponder the best way from A to B.

The Panel

  1. Karen Hormann- Chair of Bike Auckland
  2. Tim Adriaansen – Senior Transport Advisor –  Auckland Council
  3. Frederick Conquer  – Beam Mobility
  4. Maurice Wells – EBT
  5. Katherine Sandford –  Ubco Bike
  6. Finn Lawrence – Mevo Car Share

We’ll crunch the numbers and put an analytical lens and hopefully enlighten you on some new options (Fringe Benefit Tax exemptions for ebikes) so you can make an informed decision on the best way for you to travel around Auckland.
