On Friday January 7th I had the pleasure of attending the virtual launch for the 2022 Snow Mole Campaign, a program organized by the Pedestrian Safety and Walkability Sub-Committee of the Council on Aging Ottawa, to help ensure and promote safe winter walkability for seniors and other residents. SNOW MOLES are volunteers who report on what it is like to walk outside on a winter day.
If you are interested in learning more about the program or becoming a SNOW MOLE I invite you to visit their web site . When a SNOW MOLE completes a Winter Walkability and Pedestrian Safety Audit the information becomes a part of a 2022 Winter Walking in Ottawa: Snow Mole Report shared with the City of Ottawa for a better understanding of the safety of winter walking in Ottawa.
