TRANSPORT/CAR POOLING
The walk leader will usually try to ensure that the minimum number of cars are used.
Please note, those accepting lifts should, of course, contribute to the owner’s expenses and offer to take their own vehicle on a subsequent occasion where possible.
If there are two or more passengers they should cover the total cost of the trip as the vehicle owner has to ensure the vehicle is well maintained and roadworthy. Unfortunately they also incur unexpected car expenses such as broken windscreens, flat tyres, any damage etc. Also, unfortunately, some of us have incurred these unexpected expenses.
Please respect the leader or car owner’s decision not to proceed along tracks they deem unsafe or where vehicle damage is a strong possibility.
The amount in dollars shown after “Return car trip” each month is the total contribution rate to the driver. This amount is to be shared by two or more passengers. If there is only one passenger in a car the contribution is half the amount shown.
For example, if the amount shown for a trip is $30, a single passenger in a car would contribute $15, two passengers in a car would each contribute $15, three passengers would each contribute $10.
If more than one passenger the driver does not contribute to the cost.
It is not unusual for the group to return to the cars on dark before heading home. If you have evening commitments please check with the leader to gauge what time we may expect to return
Also: If travelling as a passenger please respect others car by ensuring you have a suitable change of shirt/clothing and footwear.
Participants need to contact the leader prior to the scheduled activity to ensure they have up to date details as the meeting time and place may change to better suit the walk. Leaders need to know your intention to join the group as car shuttles may have to be organised prior to the activity. Transport will be arranged for the number of walkers booked in.
The leader's details are on the Walks Program page.
