Talking about Freewheeler, a sustainable transport app: on this weeks program, Chris chats to Alex Fletcher from Perth about Freewheeler, a sustainable transport app that tracks trips, different transport modes and helps to earn points & rewards for walking, cycling & public transport. Freewheeler was recently a joint winner of the 2017 Resilient Melbourne Citymart Challenge.

Local news includes another unpleasant incident of oil dumping on lower Moonee Ponds Creek Trail, dotwatching the Transcontinent race #TCRNO5, quote from This is not a Tour by Mike Hall (The Brooks Bugle, 2016), good news for funding for a new bridge over the Merri between Northcote & CERES and last days to fill Park Victoria’s survey for an all ability access ramp to replace the Gipps Street steps in Abbotsford.
