Give your car a Spring break this year and win!
Rugby fever is hitting the Wellington region this September. Whether you’re a fan or not, get amongst the action on the streets, leave the car at home and win prizes for your efforts. Travel on foot, by bike, bus, train, ferry or even carpool - each of these street-friendly trips gets you points in the three week Spring to the Street challenge. There are prizes for individuals, teams and workplaces so spread the word. Find out how the challenge works.
Challenge starts September 19, 2011
