How to do a Mobility Snapshot

Find and select an intersection where people and motorized vehicles mix. The intersection you choose should meet ALL of the following criteria: 

1. It is a place that is widely known and recognisable near a popular train/bus station or public transport hub, or shopping/market area.
2. It is a place that has plenty of pedestrian and/or cyclist traffic mixing with motorized vehicles; AND
3. It LACKS at least one of the following:
   • Formal pedestrian crossing
   • Segregated footpath/s
   • Designated bicycle path
   • Traffic calming features such as speed hump/s on the approach to the intersection
   • Traffic lights for motorised vehicles, and/or
   • A speed limit of 30 km/h or less.

You can choose between two tools: the Star Rating Mobility Snapshot tool or the Mini Mobility Snapshot tool.

About the Star Rating Mobility Snapshot

• This tool has been developed in collaboration with iRAP
• Simplified star rating tool suitable for use without iRAP training or technical background
• Guides you to assess the road environment and to count pedestrians and other road users
• You will receive internationally-recognized star ratings for both current and recommended street designs, as well as estimated costs of the recommended interventions for your advocacy
• More than 50 questions (plus sub-questions), including uploading photographs
• Approximately 1-4 hours to complete

About the Mini Mobility Snapshot

• Short form covering only the key elements of the Mobility Snapshots
• No star ratings for current or recommended street designs 
• No estimated costs of recommended interventions
• 9 questions (includes sub-questions), including uploading photographs
• Guides you to assess the road environment and to count pedestrians and cyclists
• Approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour to complete

• Go to your selected intersection at peak hour (the busiest hour of the day, e.g., commuter rush or school start or finish time) in daylight hours (for your safety).
• Follow the questions in the tool to observe and record the road environment and users. You can print a form from the Tools page and complete the questions on paper*, or you can complete the questions directly online on your phone or tablet (need reliable internet).
• Once you have all your data, submit your responses directly through the tool online.

* NOTE: Printable forms are for information only: they cannot be used to submit your Mobility Snapshot.

Use your Mobility Snapshots to advocate for safer streets for all:

• If you used the Star Rating tool, use your star rating results and estimated costs of recommended interventions (wait time up to 4 weeks from your data submission date). 
• You can also download from the Mobility Snapshot map the visual output of your Mobility Snapshot data (wait time up to 4 weeks from your data submission date).

We recommend you use the Accountability Toolkit to support your advocacy further. Assess, prioritize, define, meet, and track.
