The Active Travel Birmingham Challenge is NOW LIVE!

The Active Travel Birmingham Challenge is a new mobile app that aims to incentivise Birmingham residents to form healthier travel habits with the offer of weekly prizes.

The app, which is now live to download, will encourage people to walk, cycle, scoot or use public transport for everyday journeys.

Users can log their journeys to gain points and climb the leaderboards, with prizes up for grabs for the best performing individuals and teams. The initial challenge period runs until Friday 4 November.

The introduction of the free app was welcomed by Councillor Liz Clements, Cabinet Member for Transport at Birmingham City Council, who said:

“The Active Travel Birmingham app is another step in our mission to improve the quality of our air in the city. By using the app, residents can change their travel habits, team up with friends, family, schoolmates and colleagues to climb the leaderboard and earn prizes, making green travel pay in more ways than one.”

The Active Travel Birmingham app is now available to download in the Apple App store and Google Play.

Download the app today and start forming greener travel habits!
