Proud to launch the #PedestrianPound report with @livingstreets today!

The data is clear: walkable neighbourhoods don't just boost health - they drive retail revenues for local businesses. Good for wellbeing, great for the economy. 🚶‍♀️📈

[Living Streets @livingstreets]

The #PedestrianPound launches in Edinburgh today - follow @LStreetsScot for the day's action.

The report makes the economic case for walkable streets, showing that pedestrians spend more and that pedestrianised high streets see bigger sales.
