A Walking Audit is a community supported data collection process, of mapping issues that will help quantify the barriers that make walking a challenge for all groups of people. It will inform pilot interventions to reclaim street spaces for pedestrians.
Dates: 20th Feb - 21st Feb, 2021
Location: Malleswaram (ward 35,45,65)
Route length audited: 39kms (Footpaths + Conservancy lanes)
Number of participants: 45
Summary:
The ‘walking Audit’ was conducted over weekend in the morning on an identified integrated walking network of 17 kms of roads (footpaths on both sides) and an additional 3.5 kms of conservancy lanes that cut across wards 35,45 and 65, connecting key neighbourhood destinations like markets, schools, parks, playgrounds, bus stops, metro stations, etc.
The participants in a team of two were assigned specific routes where they made a cognitive map of multiple issues that act as inhibitors, making it difficult to walk as well as positive aspects that facilitate walking. They also geo-located photographs that build evidence to support the issue. At the end of audit they filled an experience survey that captured the qualitative aspects of the experience of walking.
