EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- The City of El Paso is developing a Safe Routes to School Action Plan and is asking for public input. The plan will address school zone safety and promote walking and bicycling to school.

This action plan aims to provide clear and implementable direction on:

• Creating a safe, connected, and comfortable infrastructure network for children to walk and bike themselves to school

• Prioritize areas that are at risk, underrepresented, and highly utilized

• Provide a clear and implementable pathway for future improvements

• Effectively reduce vehicle speeds through design and enforcement

There is a survey to let the city know what your priorities are, and ensure your voice is heard.
