Safe Routes to School programs aim to promote walking and bicycling to and from school and improve traffic safety through education, initiatives, law enforcement and engineering measures. Successful programs require the involvement of transportation professionals—the experts a community turns to for technical advice and identification of feasible engineering solutions.
