Safe school environments and routes
In Belgium, 14 children are involved in a traffic accident on the way to school every single day. That is why we actively create safer school environments and school routes. We turn kids into strong and confident road users.
Do we choose people or machines?
believes it is too unsafe to let their child cycle or walk to school
would let their child walk or cycle to school if the streets were safe
is in favor of speed reductions for cars in school neighbourhoods
is concerned about the air quality near schools
Let's get rid of chaos at the school gate
More and more parents take their child to school by car. This makes the area around the school more dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists. Consequently, even more parents decide to take their child to school by car...
This is the reality many schools face today. Time to break that vicious circle. Time to make people realise that a school environment that prioritizes pedestrians and cyclists is much more pleasant for our kids.
A safe school environment goes further than just safety at the school gate. The routes to and from the school are just as important.
