Take the 2024 Pedestrian Plan Community Survey!

Los Angeles County is conducting a survey to better understand barriers to walking to get more people walking, make walking safer, and promote healthy activities in your community. “Walking” includes traveling by foot, wheelchair, stroller, skateboard, push scooter, etc. The survey should take 5-10 minutes, and all answers will be kept confidential. Your participation in this survey is completely voluntary, and you can stop this survey at any time. This survey was approved by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health Institutional Review Board.

Join us for a Wiseburn Community Walk this Thursday February 27th!

SBCC X Step by Step is cordially inviting you to a community walk on Thursday February 27th, 2025 at 8:00am.
At this pedestrian walk, we will be capturing & identifying any walking challenges and/or barriers that can disrupt your walking experience.
