The Oregon Safe Routes to School Action Plan is a community-based approach for increasing rates of active school travel.

SRTS: Engineering and Infrastructure
Speakers: Laughton Elliott-Deangelis, SRTS Coordinator, Springfield School District, Sarah Mazze, SRTS Program Manager, Eugene 4J School District, and Abra McNair, Communication and Special Projects, PBOT
As SRTS practitioners, gaps in infrastructure are constantly coming to light. Whether through walk audits, action planning, or concerned parents, the list grows. Prioritizing these projects for funding in transparent, objective and equitable ways is an important part of the work. Learn about several tools that Oregon practitioners have used to prioritize projects ranging from bike parking to raised crossings.
