Create a workplace access guide

The Your Move website was built to let schools and organisations sign up, identify activities they would like to complete and then write a story about those activities after they have been completed. (sometimes beforehand in the planning stages too!

Providing a map is a great way to show employees and visitors how easy it is to walk, ride a bicycle or catch the bus or train to your workplace. You can make your access guide available on your website or intranet, provide a printed copy at staff inductions and attach it to meeting invitations. 

Your Move makes it easy

If your organisation is registered on our website then you can use your redeemable points in our ‘online rewards shop’ to order your own workplace access guide, and we’ll do most of the hard work for you.

What is an Access Guide?

Workplace access guides show walking, cycling and public transport facilities. They provide information specific to your workplace, such as:

• Footpaths and bike paths
• Bicycle friendly routes
• Nearby bus stops and train stations
• Bike parking and repair stations
• Showers and lockers

How to create a workplace access guide?

To begin the process to create a workplaces access guide, you can order one from our ‘Rewards shop’. You will need to be an active member of the Your Move online community. This means you will have:

1. Signed up to Your Move as an individual
2. Registered your organisation on our website
3. Completed at least one activity
4. Posted a story on the website about what you've done to promote active travel
5. Earned the 500 points required to order a workplace access guide

Once you have accumulated 500 points, head to our online rewards shop and redeem them for an access guide. We will then email you requesting:

• Confirmation of workplace name and physical address
• A quality, high-resolution photo of your workplace
• A high-resolution file of your organisation’s logo (preferably .ai or .eps)
• A commitment that you will work with our team to mark up the map we supply with information about your bike facilities, etc.

What we do?

We will check latest the bike routes and public transport service information that connect with your workplace. We will pop it all in our handy template and make sure we provide information specific to your workplace. You will then have an opportunity to review it to check for accuracy and then we will provide you with a final PDF that can be shared online or printed.

It's also a good idea to conduct a 'Workplace Access Audit' before, or as part of creating your new access map. See the Workplace Access Audit resource.
