An uneven sidewalk, observed as part of a walk audit.

Our planning team recently invited others Trailnet staff along for a walk audit, where we observed the streets around a school and took notes: Are sidewalks wide and even? Are crossings visible? Is it safe and comfortable for kids and caregivers to get around? Are there curb cut outs?
