Urban Bike

We are a social enterprise that is on a mission to make bicycling a first choice mode of transport across Australia’s small to medium cities. Our mission is made possible by our partnerships with local governments, commercial partners and community groups. Our approach to the active transport issue and developing a bicycling community, is based on engaging key community stakeholders to a common purpose, propose the vision and then support the community with the required tools and time to achieve the vision. We facilitate practical, low risk and low cost community focussed initiatives that support bicycling as a sustainable, equal and alternative mode of transport. Our initiatives create an instant and positive behaviour change resulting in direct benefit to a community. Changing the way we move is more than a tagline to us. It lies at the heart of urbi and is a commitment we make to our partners and communities across Australia. By changing the way we move, we create healthy, active and sustainable towns and cities. We want to inspire and empower local communities to lead the way in choosing the bicycle over the car. Our goals are: To raise awareness that there is an alternative to the current approach to getting people to ride instead of drive. To advocate a collaborative approach that ‘activates’ a community to choosing the bike over the car. To facilitate a grassroots approach to getting a community riding. To promote civic leadership, active citizenry, community empowerment & employment.
