Surveys

We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.

Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.

Help people know more about this route by volunteering to submit a survey.

A no nonsense but thoroughly enjoyable route which follows Oxford Street for the vast majority of it. I walked this with my son on a day out. Pedestrian crossings where needed. Stops and shops galore! Direct, safe, enjoyable and very well served.

Great route. Simple to follow, lots of shops and vibrant activity, and nice and short. I’m always pleasantly surprised by how good Oxford Street is to walk along for such a big and busy road. I’m sure a quieter route exists, but for directness, you can’t go wrong with this one!.

It does what it says on the tin - a straight forward way to get from Oxford Circus to Holborn station to avoid the tube.
