Every Journey Tells a Tale
Moving Stories gathers, shares and celebrates the everyday journeys people make by walking, wheeling, cycling and taking the bus and explores how these simple acts of movement bring joy and connection to ourselves, each other and the places we call home. New Electric buses are helping communities become more connected, expanded walking, wheeling, and cycling routes are turning pathways into possibilities, and local travel hubs are reviving our streets with new stories to support a more sustainable, connected region. No matter how you travel, we want to hear your story and how it helps you explore, imagine and move with curiosity.
Gathering Stories
We would love to hear about your everyday journeys and how choosing to walk, wheel, cycle, or use the bus has made a difference to you, people you know, or your community. Your story could be a moment of connection, a favourite route, or simply how using these ways of travelling helps you feel more connected to the people and places around you. Every story matters.

Over the coming months, Moving Stories will spark creative happenings, community gatherings, playful experiences and powerful conversations – all designed to inspire, celebrate and show how active and sustainable travel brings us closer, boosts wellbeing, and supports a more connected, sustainable region.
From travelling Story Wagons to film, immersive technology to sonic trails, and inspiring design, each experience is crafted to invite imagination and encourage a renewed relationship with how we move through our world.
From the first step to the final stop, movement connects us – to place, to people, and to possibility.
