Imagine being able to open your computer and easily access every town centre footfall in the UK! No more tiring questionnaires, headcounts and expensive hardware installation needed… TownandPlace.AI has been selected by Buckinghamshire to provide accurate footfall analytics using the latest GPS and Artificial Intelligence technology.
Buckinghamshire Council identified the increased importance of being able to accurately count footfall and measure visitor behaviours in twelve town centres across Buckinghamshire. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the council wanted to ensure social distancing was deployed correctly to keep visitors safe as they move around the high streets – and to keep town centres open and support the local economy.
We are very happy that TownandPlace.AI has been selected by Buckinghamshire Council to provide footfall and behaviour analytics for all twelve town centres across Buckinghamshire. TownandPlace.AI is being funded by the Reopening High Streets Safely Fund – from the European Regional Development Fund (RHSSF and ERDF for herein).
The twelve town centres across Buckinghamshire using TownandPlace.AI include Aylesbury, Amersham (on-the-Hill and Old Town); Beaconsfield (Old and New Town); Buckingham, Chesham; Gerrards Cross; Great Missenden; Marlow; Princes Risborough and Wendover.
The beauty of using TownandPlace.AI is that you aren’t limited to hardware or have to choose a set number of locations. You can easily track as many town centres as you like regardless of their size anywhere across the UK.

The Future for Buckinghamshire
Buckinghamshire Council has now been utilizing TownandPlace.AI to identify where there are footfall hot spots so they can put additional mitigations in place to keep people safe i.e. target signage, the introduction of physical interventions or warden activity.
Now more than ever it’s essential to support local business owners and assist local communities to get back up and running. Through Townandplace.AI Buckinghamshire Council has been able to identify where the lower footfall areas are so they can undertake marketing and promotions to increase footfall and support businesses in these locations.
