4) You might need a tape measure, and you can submit pictures. Issues can actually be submitted either on site, or from anywhere else, once you recorded the pavement issue details. Let’s work together to make Formby accessible for all! 4/4 ✔️

👩‍🦽‍➡️🧑‍🦯‍➡️🚶‍♀️‍➡️ We are launching the Pavement Accessibility Audit. Whether you are able-bodied or disabled, live with mobility challenges, use a wheelchair, or push a pram, your everyday observations matter. Our goal is to map all pavement-related accessibility issues across Formby. 1/n

We have been developing a solution to audit local pavement issues, inspired by @accessiblestreets.bsky.social, focussed on pavement/path width, surface condition, and lowered kerb status. Users can login, and submit one photo per issue, max 20 issues per submitted location. Stay tuned! #Formby

Great work!! We’re looking into local actions like these right now. Would it be possible to get to know what worked best for you for reporting to Councillors? (deciding where lowered kerbs are missing, kerb height threshold, method how to report locations, etc)?

Our Actions Map lets you easily log local public space issues (speeding, unsafe crossings, overgrown pavements & more). Your observations help build clear local evidence for practical improvements. Map → theformbycommons.github.io/formby-commo... #Formby #FormbyCommons #ActiveTravel #Community
