Everyone
Actions anyone can take to improve transport quality of life
Try bike-sharing
Use your city's public bike-share or e-scooter system for short trips. Every ride logged strengthens the case for more infrastructure.
Find bikes near youMap walking paths
Contribute to OpenStreetMap by mapping footpaths, crosswalks, and pedestrian signals in your neighbourhood. Better maps lead to better walking directions.
Open map editorReport infrastructure issues
Report broken footpaths, missing streetlights, or blocked cycle lanes to your municipal corporation. Documented complaints drive maintenance budgets.
File a complaintActive Citizen
Advocacy and participation in urban transport decisions
Attend ward meetings
Municipal ward committees discuss local transport budgets and projects. Your presence ensures walking and cycling get attention alongside motor vehicle priorities.
Join a cycling advocacy group
Connect with local cycling communities who organize rides, push for infrastructure, and represent cyclist interests in policy discussions.
Find local groupsParticipate in public consultations
City Master Plans, Comprehensive Mobility Plans, and Smart City proposals have public comment periods. Advocate for pedestrian and cyclist safety measures.
Corporate
Actions for employers and organisations to support sustainable commuting
Offer cycle-to-work benefits
Provide cycle parking, shower facilities, and purchase subsidies. Companies with cycling benefits see reduced absenteeism and improved employee wellbeing.
Subsidise transit passes
Offer metro/bus pass subsidies as part of employee benefits. This shifts commute mode share and reduces parking demand at your facility.
Track commute sustainability
Use Altmo to measure your organisation's commute mode share, carbon footprint, and active transport participation rates.

Data-driven actions for transport planners and policymakers
Publish open transport data
Release bus routes as GTFS, share traffic count data, and publish accident locations. Open data enables evidence-based advocacy and academic research.
MobilityData catalogueConduct pedestrian safety audits
Systematic walkability audits identify missing footpaths, dangerous crossings, and accessibility barriers. The iRAP Star Rating methodology provides a standardised framework.
iRAP methodologyDesign protected cycle infrastructure
Physically separated cycle tracks (not painted lanes) are proven to increase cycling mode share. Refer to the Indian Road Congress IRC SP-110 guidelines.
Improve transit accessibility data
Map transit stop accessibility features (ramps, tactile paths, shelters) to enable inclusive route planning for persons with disabilities.
