Safe Routes to School
The City of Austin’s Safe Routes to School Program educates students on pedestrian and bicycle safety and provides crossing guards at crucial intersections. Our mission is to reduce barriers that prevent students from actively traveling to school. We do this by providing crossing guards at warranted locations, educating students on pedestrian and bicycle safety, and engaging with the community to increase the number of students who choose human power to get to school.
2016 Mobility Bond Information
In November 2016, voters approved the 2016 Mobility Bond which provided $27.5 million for Safe Routes to School improvements. We're using these funds to improve the different ways students to get to and from school. Find out more about how you can get involved.
