Safe Routes To School (SRTS) programs are an opportunity to make walking and bicycling to school safer for children in grades K-8, and to increase the number of children who choose to walk and bike. On a broader level, SRTS programs can enhance children’s health and well-being, ease traffic congestion near schools, and improve community members’ overall quality of life.
