What can I do on my own?

You can do several things now to make the school journey safer.

• Encourage your kids to develop and sustain active, healthy lifestyles.
• Get excited about being active and making your neighborhood a great place to move around.
• Be an example – walk and bike with your children.
• Get out of cars and onto your feet and bikes!
• Drive slower, especially around schools.
• Give pedestrians and bicyclists space.
• Observe parking controls.
• Park further away from school and walk.
• Consider your automobile use.
• Consider carpooling with another family.

Question your travel choices . . . could I walk, bike, carpool, or go by transit?
