Tomahawk Safe Routes To School – 2026

Safe Routes to School (SRTS) programs are an opportunity to make walking and bicycling to school safer for children in grades K-12, and to increase the number of children who choose to walk and bicycle. On a broader level, SRTS programs can enhance children’s health and well-being, ease traffic congestion near the school, and improve community members’ overall quality of life.
