We will be doing a walk/bike (and transit) audit of Wilson from the Hartford line to the Windsor Shopping Center. We'll meet at Sharshon Park at 11:00 and break into teams of 3-5 people. Bring the whole family for some low-impact exercise with a big impact on Wilson's success!

A walk/bike audit identifies the roads and intersections that are dangerous for pedestrians and bike commuters but can and should be safely walkable and crossable. Teams of four or five volunteers take a portion of the area to assess for design elements that encourage or discourage walking and biking. It takes about an hour for each team to complete a targeted walk audit and a bit more time to summarize your observations and offer ideas for needed improvements.

We will offer a short info session and training for volunteers on May 10 at 7:00 p.m. RSVP below for the link.
