    NJ Safe Routes to School
    : Implementing a Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Travel Plan requires the proactive interest of several community members to form a team with diverse backgrounds and interests. The team collaborates to reach one common goal: increasing the number of students walking and biking to school. The team initiates and oversees activities that improve bicycle and pedestrian conditions and educates parents on the benefits of walking and biking to school. The SRTS Team will consist of champions (coordinators) and stakeholders (the Task Force). Further information about instituting a Safe Routes to School program can be found at www.state.nj.us/transportation/community/srts/pdf/building.pdf.

    There is also a Safe Routes to School newsletter, which can be accessed at http://policy.rutgers.edu/vtc/newsletters/saferoutes.php.
