What is Safe Routes to School?

Safe Routes to School is a community approach to encourage and enable more people to walk and bike to school safely. It’s about getting kids out of cars and onto their feet and bikes. It’s also about making car, bus, and transit routes safe for our kids who can’t walk and bike to school. SR2S does this primarily by identifying the safest routes from children’s homes to their school and by pointing out route problems for local agencies to investigate to determine potential improvement measures. By combining the "4Es" (education, enforcement, engineering, and encouragement), SR2S provides a comprehensive approach to school traffic safety problems.
