The Safe Routes to School program aims to create a safe environment for students to walk, wheel and roll to school wherever possible. The City is partnering with the school district, school administration, caregivers and students to understand school travel choices and identify any existing transportation challenges and opportunities for improvement.
The City launched this pilot project in May in partnership with Carmi and Uplands Elementary schools, with the goal of extending it to other schools. Stay tuned for further updates on this project.
