WalkShops are short for "Walking Workshops," where a small group of people will go visit and walk by foot (or wheelchair roll) the corridor to experience and document the actual built environment conditions at the site. We've found that nothing quite compares to experiencing a corridor for yourself, as many things don't translate in maps, videos, or even google street view. 

​

Between 2015 - 2018, Denver CALC partnered with WalkDenver to conduct WalkShop Assessments with community volunteers to gather data on conditions of sidewalks and intersections in Denver. These WalkShops were completed at over 120 schools and recreation centers in Denver, where a group of people use the tools below to collect data related to the built environment. Our WalkShop Assessment includes the following surveys for blocks in approximately 1/4 mile radius around each site: 

- School or Recreation Center Site Assessment: Overall Rating & Amenities

- Pedestrian Assessment: Sidewalk Quality & Intersection Quality surveys (see data mapped below)

- Biking Assessment: Overall Rating, Facility Type, & Amenities

- Bus Stop Assessment: Overall Rating & Amenities

 

All Paper Assessment Tools, Data Captain & Volunteer Guides, and other Assessment Materials are available on the Public Google Drive here.

​

The Pedestrian Assessment was done using a tool called WALKscope. This tool is no longer functional to input data; however, we have set up a viewer below to view archived sidewalk and intersection quality ratings below.
