We're busy work on a Phase 2 of Widen My Path - aimed at enabling communities in favour of schemes now built to co-design potential improvements and iterations to them, to help build and increase support. Watch this space!

Whenever govt. lifts local lockdown, social distancing will be vital, so we’ve been busy creating safe, sustainable & socially equitable shopping areas. We’re now busy trying to make them look a bit nicer. Visit
widenmypath.com/leicester to suggest where needs similar treatment.

Each highway authority can now download Widen My Path submissions for their area, using official OS boundaries, supporting Emergency Active Travel Fund Tranche2 bids:

widenmypath.com/areas/#highway…

Download links are under the submission form.
Open data, available to all, at any time.

You can also still download the data for any map area - but these new highway authority links limit the data to the official boundary, helping officers see only data within their remit.

We said we’d do 10 miles of pop-up cycling & walking in ten weeks.
We’ve done *11*. Covid safe, low carbon & health giving. Here’s our hot-off-the-press ‘tube map’ of routes. We’re now moving into the next stage: #watchthisspace . Get your ideas on widenmypath.com/leicester

I was briefed today - for the first time - on Widen My Path #Leicester data. What an amazing resource to add to our transportation toolkit!
People across our city are driving policy and decision-making during #Covid19UK - and will continue to do so. Data & analysis to follow...

Where should wider pavements and cycle tracks be created?

Our lovely new site lets you tell councils and campaigners where these are most needed, wherever you are.

Nice discussion of Widen My Path, within this great podcast with Laura Laker talking with Robin Lovelace @[email protected] about the Rapid Cycleway Prioritisation Tool.

Points out how top-down street analysis work and bottom-up crowdsourced open data like Widen My Path work together nicely.

We've had an enquiry from a local group to import an existing ideas map in Google My Maps, so that people can then upvote- and feed into this national dataset.

Do get in touch if you'd like to import such maps, as we're just creating an importer to enable this to be done easily.

Did you know you can filter proposals by type, e.g. footway or filtered streets proposals, using the control at the bottom? We'll be adding further customisations on this soon, and welcome your ideas!
