Safe Routes to School

As parents and partners in the Safe Routes to School movement, Alta is committed to supporting local and regional communities in creating safe and accessible transportation options for children walking and biking to school. Our holistic approach to Safe Routes to School uses the six “E’s” – equity, engineering, education, engagement, encouragement, and evaluation paired with expertise from our Creative Services and Civic Analytics teams.

Suggested Route Mapping

Our team’s Suggested Route Maps combine SRTS, graphic design, and GIS expertise to develop clear, well-designed maps that facilitate print and digital communication of your community’s SRTS program.

Safe Routes to School Planning

We specialize in developing comprehensive SRTS plans that integrate all six Es – Equity, Engineering, Education, Engagement, Encouragement, and Evaluation – in a holistic manner to increase opportunities to walk and bike to schools.

Safe Routes to School Engineering

We plan, design, and implement Safe Routes to School engineering projects across the country that make walking and biking safe, comfortable, and exciting options for students to get to school.

Strategic Planning + Coalition Building

Our dedicated team specializes in bringing communities together to initiate and/or improve SRTS programs by defining roles and responsibilities, timelines, and priorities to overcome identified barriers.

SRTS Communications, Education + Encouragement

We support communities in designing education and encouragement programs that promote taking active and shared trips to school.

SRTS Evaluation + Safety Analysis

Our team uses effective, efficient, and meaningful metrics that help communities identify program solutions, quantify participation and safety improvements, and continuously improve program offerings over time over time.
