School Route Audits
The School Route Audit (SRA) methodology is a way of effectively involving pupils, parents, and other community stakeholders in the process of evaluating the quality of the walking environment around schools. SRAs are done in partnership with Living Streets Scotland and explores the walking routes to schools from the viewpoint of the people who currently use or could use them. SRAs provide recommendations to overcome physical and perceived barriers to walking to school and can feed into schemes to ensure places are fit for walking for all journeys.
The School Route Audit aims:
- to identify barriers to walking to school and encourage families to choose to walk
- to identify ways to reduce the effects of vehicle traffic on people who walk and cycle
- to improve connectivity and the general attractiveness of routes to school
- to identify improvement measures, priorities and suggest a course of action
