Diane and I did some of our civic duty today . we participated in a village walk audit for our town. It’s a program started by the AARP to look at the ‘walkability’ of your town.<\/a><\/p>\n

To set the tone, We shared this postcard we found .. It shows a futuristic \u00a0view of our tiny town of Richmond.. as envisioned \u00a0in the early 1900’s . The funny thing is we found this postcard while looking through an antigue \u00a0show in Pennsylvania.
\n\"\"<\/a>Today we had 8 citizens broken into 3 groups looking at \u00a0sidewalks, crosswalks and.. uh.. something else..
\nit was a 90 degree and humid day.. so not many walkers<\/a><\/p>\n

d iane and I were on the crosswalk team.. we checked all 9 crosswalks in town. Honestly, I’d never spent much time looking at these crosswalks. \u00a0I was impressed that we had so many warning signs, blinking lights etc.. That said, we did find a bunch of things that need addressing. The biggest issue was that paint in the most used crosswalks needed redoing..<\/p>\n

Here are some pictures of the stuff we saw.<\/p>\n

We all gathered to compare notes afterwards. \u00a0W’er collating the results to give guidance to our town planners who are applying for some grants.
\nWe are doing another one of these walk next Sunday in our own little corner of town.<\/p>\n

I love helping out with stuff like this<\/p>\n

nite all, nite sam<\/p>\n
