“Community, education & safety: community, education & safety programs are multi-age education, safety and advocacy programs including bike smart and walk smart, safe routes for school, and complete streets. Bike smart is local motion's youth on-bike education program, serving a number of schools with a high percentage of students receiving free and reduced lunch. This program has reached over 150 towns in all 14 vermont counties. Walk smart is a curriculum used by schools for improving pedestrian safety. Safe routes for school is a program designed to make all road users safe while using our roadways, especially when traveling to and from schools. The goal of this program is to increase walking and biking by improving the safety of our streets. Additional educational programs includes workshops, group bike rides, and events that are inclusive and accessible to be as inviting as possible for anyone who is interested in bicycling and walking more. Local motion's complete streets is focused on improving on-street infrastructure and policy at both the state and local levels, with the goal of making vermont streets safe and comfortable for all users. We work towards this through a variety of means, including organizing and coalition building, forming and supporting local walk/bike groups, gathering community feedback and providing technical assistance for infrastructure proposals, and helping municipalities experiment with new infrastructure at a low cost through the use of our pop-up project mobile support unit.”
