Date your City
#DYC An engaging tool for walkability assessments
About this process
The "Date Your City" tool by EIT Urban Mobility provides a template and method for assessing a city's walkability and streetscape. Based on common online dating app formats, Date Your City allows people to indicate what parts of the streetscape they "match with" - and which ones they don't. It creates a format for people to think about their preferences, increase their awareness on walkability and the quality of public space, and enter into a forum for actionable discussion and debate.
While there are many walking audit tools that exist, the Date your City tool is meant add a playful, easy alternative for people to get involved.
