Street and Travel Survey

Understand travel patterns in neighbourhoods

Activity Type : Understand
Participant Audience : Residents
Description

This tool asks residents to give feedback on their travel patterns within the neighbourhood, including mode choice, popular routes, and routes they avoid. Survey people at events, pop-up kiosks, door-to-door and/or online.

What makes this tool valuable?

This tool gives in-depth feedback about which routes people use (and why) and which they avoid (and why). The results are valuable for understanding how people move through their neighbourhoods, and where there are areas of concern.
