Safe Routes to School -----------> Walk It, Bike It!

Safe Routes to School (SRTS) is a program designed to encourage students to walk and bike to school to promote a healthy lifestyle, reduce traffic congestion, improve air quality and enhance quality of life in our communities. We use “The Five E’s” - Education, Encouragement, Enforcement, Engineering and Evaluation - to make routes safer, children and parents more knowledgeable, and the community more engaged so that more children will walk and bike to school.

We are currently working with the Boise School District and for school year 2009-2010 we hope to have programming in all elementary and junior high schools in the district.

So next time you're headed out, whether to school, work or the store - Walk It, Bike It!
