Safe Routes to School

Lexington's Safe Routes to School Program

Our Safe Routes to School Program is part of a state, national and international initiative to give students safe places to walk and bike between home and school.

Not sure which routes are safest? Check out the Safe Routes to School maps, and find suggested routes in Google Maps.

Interested, but don't want to do it alone? Consider a walking bus or bike train (PDF)! Fill out our interest form to be connected with others and to get help getting started.

Want to help promote walking and biking at your child's elementary or middle school? Email the Transportation Services Department or call 781-698-4820 for more information - we'll get you connected to the right people.
