In response to the continuous improvement of various walking systems and facilities in Macao, as well as the opening of the pedestrian walkway along the Avenida de Guimarães of Taipa, the Cartography and Cadastre Bureau (DSCC) has cooperated with the Transport Bureau, the Land, Public Works and Transport Bureau, the Municipal Affairs Bureau and the Cultural Affairs Bureau to launch the updated version of “Walking Routes Map” and the thematic website. It is convenient for the citizens to learn about the latest walking systems and facilities in Macao and to meet the needs of the citizens.

The updated version of “Walking Routes Map” added the walking route map of the pedestrian walkway along the Avenida de Guimarães of Taipa, introducing the walking route and the required walking time between the Light Rapid Transit Stadium Station, Olympic Sports Centre, Central da Taipa Park and Taipa Village. At the same time, the route maps of Cheok Kun Pavilion Escalator and Walkway System, walking route between the Lakeside Garden and Taipa Houses and the Escalator and Walkway System at Baía de Nossa Senhora da Esperança are also updated, providing location information of various cross-district walking systems, pedestrian crossing facilities, car parks, bus stops, taxi stops and light rail stations, so that the citizens can walk to various districts in a safe, comfortable, convenient and time-saving way.
