About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours
  • ALL AGES

Join the Somerville Pedestrian & Transit Advisory Committee (PTAC) and fellow community members for a walk audit of Union Square. A walk audit is a community assessment of how safe, accessible, comfortable, and inviting it is to walk in a defined area. Since Union Square is one of the busiest pedestrian areas citywide and home to several high-crash roads, we want to identify opportunities to make this beloved square safer for people walking in the near-term.


We will have several groups leaving from the same location at slightly staggered times, so don’t worry if you can’t arrive right at 6 p.m.


This event is hosted by the Somerville Pedestrian & Transit Advisory Committee (PTAC) in collaboration with the Somerville Alliance for Safe Streets (SASS), Groundwork Somerville, and the Somerville Commission for Persons with Disabilities (SCPD).
