The City of Hobart is partnering with school communities to create School Access Travel Plans. The main goal is to encourage students to use active travel, such as walking, cycling, scootering, or taking the bus. This initiative aims to improve the health and liveability of Hobart by reducing traffic congestion and greenhouse gas emissions around schools, making the areas safer.
These plans help the City of Hobart identify and prioritise projects for funding and grant applications. A pilot project, partly funded by a Community Road Safety Partnership grant, has already completed plans for South Hobart, Goulburn Street, and New Town Primary Schools. The project is now being expanded to include Mount Nelson Primary School.
Mount Nelson Primary School Access Travel Plan Survey
We will be gathering data and information to inform the development of School Access Travel Plans. We want to hear from Mount Nelson Primary School students and their parents/carers about active travel use in their area.
In particular, we want to know:
Current active travel use to and from Mount Nelson Primary School
Key active travel routes to and from the school
Difficulties in using active travel
Reasons for not using active travel to get to and from school, and reasons for not using active travel more often.
Please complete one (1) survey for each student. Students who may travel from more than one household during the school week are encouraged to respond to the survey based on the home that they live in most of the time. Students who live 50/50 across two households can complete two surveys.
* Thank you for taking part in this survey. Please note that all information collected is anonymous and will only be used for the purposes of the School Active Travel Plan project. There is a section at the end of the survey where students can complete information with their parents/guardians about the potential barriers to active travel.
