Formerly known as Bike Life, this is the UK's biggest ever study of walking, wheeling and cycling.
Every year, walking and cycling in Tyneside results in:
I鈥檓 registered blind and have a guide dog. I walk into North Shields every weekday to take my kids to school.
The street isn鈥檛 level, with a lot of potholes and poor drainage. Sometimes there鈥檚 no kerb. Guide dogs are trained to go from kerb to kerb so the dog gets confused if the kerb鈥檚 not there.
Clear street corners and edges help, with contrasting colours. Straight听lines听and landmarks like bollards or bins are useful to navigate.

This is the third time we've collaborated with Gateshead Council, Newcastle City Council and North Tyneside Council to survey active travel in the city.
