Are you a concerned parent or neighbor interested in slowing traffic speeds on routes to schools? Let us help you organize a traffic safety campaign for your neighborhood. Beaverton Safe Routes to School has teamed up with Metro and Oregon Department of Transportation to build a new campaign geared towards drivers in neighborhoods and school zones. Contact us at bsdsaferoutes@gmail.com today. Together we can help our students stay safe while walking and rolling to schools. School routes are everywhere. #DriveLikeIt

Septermber 3rd, 2021                                 School is in session!

The new school year is the perfect time for students and families to start creating healthy (and safe!) habits. Safety is everyone’s responsibility! Here are some reminders when you are traveling in your neighborhood:

• Keep your eyes and ears open for traffic all around.

• Wear a helmet whenever you travel by bike, skateboard, scooter, or roller skates.

• If driving, slow down to 20 mph or less in school zones and neighborhood streets.

• Check for safety at all intersections and in bike lanes.

Remember to be alert and mindful of all road users (no texting!).
