Case studies

  • Over 50k printed maps have been distributed across Inner London. Dozens of digital maps for boroughs, museums and cultural organisations highlight key walking routes and features.

  • Footways has worked with Transport for London, the Greater London Authority, Network Rail, LNER, several London councils and BIDs to deliver mapping, advocacy and design work.

  • Footways digital maps receive around 20,000 views each month and are featured on high-profile websites, including those of museums, Business Improvement Districts, councils, and Transport for London’s Walking page.

  • The Central London Footways map was Stanfords’ ‘Map of the Month’ and its top-selling map in November 2022. Footways also won a Network Rail Achieving Communications Excellence (ACE) award.

  • Footways has helped raise the profile of walking within the transport agenda. Its routes are now cited in borough transport strategies, including Camden Council, and Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Trust’s 2023–27 strategy.

  • The organisation has worked with councils on redesigns through housing estates, creation of new green links, and public space improvements outside major stations and town centres.

  • Footways co-founders regularly speak at conferences including Living Streets’ Walking Summit, London’s Walking & Cycling Conference, helping embed walking in public discourse and professional practice.

Our Impact

Our partners

  • Transport for London sponsored the first edition of Central London Footways in 2020 and promotes our network from its Walking page.

    "We're proud to join London Living Streets in introducing the new Footways map, which is a beautifully illustrated guide to all that London has to offer. These quiet and accessible routes highlight just how easy and surprisingly quick it is to explore our city on foot.” - Christina Calderato, Head of Transport Strategy and Planning at TfL.

  • We worked with Hackney Council and conducted extensive engagement with local communities to produce a new walking map for Hackney, designed to help people explore the borough and get around in a healthy, sustainable, and enjoyable way.

    This created the Hackney Central Footways 2023 with an A2 paper and printed map.

  • Westminster Council commissioned us to create a digital and printed map of walking routes across the city. The printed map was published in July 2025. A billboard map of our routes was also posted on Strand Aldwych when the new public realm scheme opened in 2022.

  • We worked with Islington Council to create digital and paper maps of Clerkenwell, encouraging residents and visitors to explore this history-rich neighbourhood on foot.

    Together with Islington we also produced digital maps that highlight a network of walking routes from housing estates and along quiet routes around the Caledonian Road area.
