Safe Routes to School

There is a growing national
and international movement towards
encouraging children to walk
and bicycle to school.
Schools are a logical focal
point for creating safe, healthy,
physically active communities.
While current conditions indicate
the majority of children are
being bused and driven to
school, changes in the physical
environment (including sidewalks,
crossings and traffic calming
of school zones) can be combined
with encouragement programs
to facilitate a return to safe
routes to school.
