We’re excited to host three walk audits in the coming weeks and months, supported by an AARP Community Challenge microgrant. These events are open to all, and we’d love your input.
A walk audit is a community-led stroll through a neighborhood to observe and document how safe, accessible, and welcoming our streets and sidewalks are for people of all ages and abilities. Together, we’ll identify opportunities for improvement—from crosswalk visibility to sidewalk conditions to traffic calming—and gather insights that can inform future advocacy and planning like the Roslindale Transportation Action Plan.
Upcoming Walk Audits
