Information to develop your SRTS plan and run your SRTS program

Developing A Plan (updated June, 2008*)
This link will take you to the ODOT document that offers suggestions on how to develop a School Travel Plan for your community.

ODOT expects these plans to be brief. We are looking for an overview and a well informed judgment on what needs to be done to make it safer for children to walk or ride their bikes to school. The plans need to focus on all 5 E's as stated in the guidelines above.* Information has been reorganized. Requirements remain the same.
