Helen Keller Elementary School Walk Audit

WalkBoston conducted a walk audit along Lincoln Street in the vicinity of the Helen Keller Elementary School / Annie Sullivan Middle School campus in Franklin, Massachusetts. After a brief presentation on the features of a walkable community, the group carried out an on-the-street audit of the pedestrian facilities near the school, with an emphasis on the route students would walk between the school grounds and Dacey Field, a remote drop-off location.

The walking audit was organized by the Hockomock YMCA in conjunction with Helen Keller Elementary School as part of a grant from the MetroWest Community Health Foundation. One WalkBoston staff member, three Hockomock YMCA staff members, and a grandparent of two Keller Elementary students participated in the audit.
