Due to the coronavirus (Covid-19) crisis and social distancing measures the UK government took, retail footfall data following March 2020 saw an unprecedented fall. In the United Kingdom (UK), visitor numbers to retail locations were generally in decline, but for retail parks the decline was less dramatic. Over the period displayed here, footfall has slightly recovered, with positive year-on-year change in shopper numbers across retail parks occuring in August, September, and October. In November 2024, however, retail parks saw a decrease in footfall for the first time in several months, with the figure down 1.1 percent compared to the same month last year.
