Reading Travel Rewards Challenge

19th January 2023

Reading residents are encouraged to sign up for the Reading Travel Rewards Challenge this month – and start collecting points towards reward vouchers.

With the Reading Travel Rewards Challenge, users earn points when they ditch the car, and choose to walk, wheel, cycle, scoot or run, or take the bus or train when travelling inside the Reading area.

By choosing to travel actively, users start earning points which can be redeemed for vouchers at high street stores, restaurants and supermarkets – or donated to charity.

The App also tracks how long someone had spent travelling actively that week, routes travelled and the time taken, calories burned and the pollution avoided through limiting Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Nitrogen dioxide (NO2).

There are lots of fun challenges, as well as brilliant prize draws in January - kicking off the new year with the ‘Twenty… Twenty… Three!’ challenge. More rewards will be added over the coming weeks and months, including a ‘Bus Builder’ reward in February and a similar boost for cycle travel in March - but to get everyone started, there are three great rewards running for choosing active and sustainable travel choices.
