| Ely Bicycle Pedestrian Plan
|
Evaluation provides the core element of the SRTS program by evaluating existing conditions around the schools in Ely, and determining design elements necessary to remedy the problems the evaluation uncovers. The education component includes identifying safe routes, teaching students to look both ways at intersections, and how to handle potentially dangerous situations. Enforcement includes policies that address pedestrian safety issues such as speeding or illegal turning. Encouragement is the final element of the SRTS program. It combines the results of the other areas to improve knowledge, facilities and enforcement to encourage more students to walk or ride safely to school. The project is expected to be complete by June 30, 2009. For a detailed timeline and scope of work click HERE.

| Ely Safe Routes to School Survey
|
| The Ely SRTS Committee used a survey developed by the National Center of Safe Routes to School to gain input on travel patterns to and from school. Parents/guardians filled out a 16-question survey distributed during the week of October 20, 2008. Surveys were distributed in all k-8 through eighth grade report cards. The surveys asked for information regarding current travel mode behavior and safety perceptions. Please click on a school below to find the results of these surveys.
