Aberdeen launches survey on Green and Open Spaces

Aberdeen City Council has launched a city-wide survey on the use and perceptions of the city’s green and open spaces.

A physical audit is being held on the quantity and quality of green and open spaces and how well these spaces are distributed and accessible to citizens.

The survey has two key objectives. The first, is to gauge the public’s general views of Aberdeen’s green and open spaces and the second, is an opportunity for the public to tell the City Council more about specific spaces that are important to them. The data gathered will be used to add community value to the open space audit and inform Aberdeen’s Open Space Strategy and assist with future policy, planning, and management of open spaces.

All residents and visitors to the city are invited to take part in this short survey which should take between 7-10 minutes to complete.

There are many green and open spaces in Aberdeen, which are usually areas within or on the edges of settlements and can include parks, gardens, playing fields, woodlands, river corridors, play areas, allotments, and civic spaces.

The survey closes at 11.59pm on Sunday 20 March 2022.
