C-U SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL

Welcome to the C-U Safe Routes to School Project!

C-U Safe Routes to School Project’s (C-U SRTS Project) goal is to make it safer and more fun for students to walk and bike to school and to encourage more walking and biking. The C-U SRTS Project Steering Committee is composed of local community members, public health, planning and transportation professionals, local bicycle organizations, and school district that all play roles in making it more appealing and safer for students to walk, bike or roll to school. Underserved communities deserve particular attention as they more often walk and bike for transportation.
