Sustainable Transportation

Commuter Challenge

Join us for the national, week-long challenge that encourages Canadians to choose active and sustainable modes of transportation

Explore your sustainable travel options that help benefit people and the planet, such as; walking, running, wheeling, cycling, rollerblading, taking transit, carpooling, and telecommuting.

All you need to do is register and log your sustainable and active transportation trips throughout the first week of June to participate and win prizes!

Why Participate

Cut down your carbon footprint

Commuting by car is the largest single source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Manitoba. GHG emissions are the leading cause of climate change and air pollution.

Move and stay active

Less than half of all Manitobans get enough physical activity. Using sustainable transportation allows people to incorporate physical activity into their daily routines.

Save time and money

The average cost to own and operate a vehicle can range from $8,500 – $11,500 or higher each year based on the typical 18,000 km driven. Choose alternative modes to save money.

Take the Challenge!

Commuter Challenge is now hosted on the GoManitoba platform.
