Sense check destinations used for leisure trips #415

Closed Robinlovelace closed 4 months ago

Robinlovelace commented 4 months ago

As reported by @anguscalder, there's a question around the 'trip attractor' destinations from OS data used to estimate leisure potential.

Specifically: does it currently include parks? One to clarify.

Suggested next step: add parks. That can be documented as another issue so closing for now.
