A large-format, folded paper map with a protective card cover. Printed by the best cartographic press in the UK – the same as Ordnance Survey maps – with a special Pantone fluorescent ink, custom drawn to highlight all the places to explore on foot or by bike. Double-sided, with a city atlas on the reverse.
The map shows Bristol as a city of nature, bringing its green and blue spaces to the fore – its parks, woodlands, playing fields, nature reserves, rivers, and estuary. It incorporates walk and cycle travel options, places to take in views, and other outdoor activities. It shows open space rather than roads and buildings. On the reverse is an atlas of information, graphics, and ideas. Urban Nature Map Bristol aims to stimulate us to see the city differently: to think more deeply about the city as a place, and our place in it. It’s a resource to encourage more awareness and more action for people and nature…to help put nearby nature in everyday lives.
