Strategic Measure_Safe Routes to School

Safe Routes to School (SRTS) projects include over 4600 total recommendations for improving safety for students walking and biking to school. Of those, 1864 recommendations rank high or very-high benefit and are the focus of implementation.

All SRTS projects are selected for implementation using the following guiding principles:
1) Implement projects that have either a high / very-high overall benefit; or a high / very high cost / benefit score,
2) Make meaningful improvements walking and bicycling to as many schools as possible;
3) For the 2016 bond funding, balance funding equally per district, as per council direction;
4) Other available sources of funding will be leveraged to implement additional projects.
