Along this mapped section · within 500 m

Distances are measured in a straight line from the nearest part of the street. Places may be near different sections. Areas use an interior point, not an entrance. These are source records, not unique venues or walking distances. Activity is not corroborated: records come from the September 2026 map snapshot, and an object's edit date does not confirm that a venue operates.

Values apply to their individual tagged segments and sides. Left and right follow the direction of each individual source way; they are not a single orientation for the whole street. An explicit no means no pavement on the tagged segment or side; a missing tag is unknown, and separate means a pavement mapped independently.
