Safe Routes to School

Walk to School Day 2015

Every year, the Valley Transportation Authority makes grants available through their Vehicle Emissions Reductions Based at Schools program to fund education programs through Safe Routes to Schools programs. Such programs encourage students of schools in Santa Clara County to walk or bike to school to reduce morning commute congestion.

Safe Routes to School refers to a variety of multi-disciplinary programs aimed at both increasing the number of students walking and bicycling to school and reducing the number of vehicle trips associated with school travel on a national or statewide level.
