An important part of planning routes to school is understanding where play, socializing, meeting up, and other leisure activities occur in the neighbourhood. These activities contribute to a child’s connection to their community and their ability to walk to school. We would like to learn how these locations could be improved to support your activities.
Which places in your neighbourhood are important to you? Use the map below to share the locations where you spend time within a short walk from home. Think about where you play, gather/meet with others, or spend time on your own.
Some examples might include:
Walking your dog at a park
Playing a game in the street
Reading a book on a bench
Meeting friends on a street corner before walking to school
Double click on the desired location and share how you use that place.
