The Walkable and Livable Communities Institute, together with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Project for Public Spaces, and AECOM, have published the Walkability Workbook. 

 

The workbook provides targeted technical assistance to help communities improve walkability and raise awareness of the importance of making streets and neighborhoods more walkable so as to improve health, well-being, sustainability, and quality-of-life.  It is also a guide for community residents and leaders to plan a walkability workshop, conduct a walking audit, and document their findings.  The workbook includes a facilitator's guide, presentation slides, a collection of walkability tools and concepts, and a walking audit survey tool.  It provides step-by-step instructions and necessary tools to help organize a successful workshop and conduct a meaningful audit.
