Staying safe on the trail
- Keep your head up: Stay aware of your surroundings, traffic, and pedestrians while walking. Step into a safe, stationary pavement spot before checking your screen.
- Roads and waterways: Use designated pedestrian crossings and keep children supervised near roads, canal towpaths, and tramlines.
- Weather & terrain: Check local daylight hours and weather before setting out. Wear sensible footwear suited to cobbles, stone pavements, and inclines.
- Respect the space: Stay on public rights of way. Never climb walls, scale statues, or trespass onto private land to solve a puzzle.
