The purpose of Walking Audits are to highlight corridors and areas that could benefit from a street assessment to better promote all modes of transportation. Walking audits aim to engage stakeholders, technical staff, elected officials and representatives of non-traditional transportation partners. The Broward MPO successfully funded and implemented Walking Audits county-wide through the Complete Streets Initiative. The Walking Audits are coordinated with City staff and hosted in different locations, such as schools, parks, community centers, and local businesses depending on the urban context of the study area. Feedback from these Walking Audits inform the scope of projects, ensuring the needs of community members and stakeholders are clearly reflected in the final recommendations.
Walking Audit Objectives
- Experience the surrounding area as a pedestrian
- Evaluate the safety and quality of the pedestrian experience
- Identify barriers to a walkable/bikeable/transit friendly environment
- Propose recommendations for improvements
