Rate Your Walk on the go or when you've got where you are going - it will take just a minute or so to complete.

First of all, what kind of a walk are you rating?

Rate your walk

This is step 1

How would you rate the quality of the footways?

Are pavements clean, smooth and well maintained?

How clear is your path from temporary or permanent obstructions?

Includes anything from parked cars, advertising boards, signage, bins and so on

Do you feel you have enough space to walk on the footway comfortably?

Does it feel easy to walk down without having to stop or 'walk around' people and obstacles?

This is step 2

How safe do you feel in relation to motor traffic?

Think about things like speed and volume of traffic.

How easy is it to cross the road where you want to cross?

Do you feel safe crossing the road? Are there crossing facilities? Are there dropped kerbs at crossing points?

How easy is it to walk directly to the places you want to walk?

Are pedestrian routes direct and uninterrupted?

Rate your walk

This is step 3

How safe do you feel in terms of your own security?

Do you feel comfortable walking there by yourself at all times of the day?

How would you rate your walking route as a place to spend time?

Do you feel encouraged to stop there? Are there places to sit and relax? Is it quiet enough to have a conversation?

How likely are you to recommend your walking route?

Would you suggest friends walk this route either for convenience or just for the enjoyment?
