The aim of this project is to encourage residents to replace at least one fossil-fuelled journey per week with a sustainable alternative.
What if one small change each week could make a real difference?
Swap One is all about that idea.
Replace just one car trip a week with something lower-emissions — walking, biking, busing, carpooling, or working from home.
It might not sound like much. But across a whole region, it adds up fast.
Transport makes up a big chunk of Nelson’s emissions — especially everyday trips to work and school. Swap One helps turn those habits into opportunities.
We’re working with local partners to make it easier, with:
- Community events
- Business partnerships
- A dedicated web portal
- Drop-in clinics
- An app to track your progress
Give it a go. Start with one trip.
