The City of Austin is moving forward with construction of mobility and safety improvements designed to help students walk and bike to Gorzycki Middle School and Mills Elementary School and support safer access for everyone to nearby neighborhood destinations.

The Austin Transportation and Public Works Department is developing safer routes to Doss Elementary and Murchison Middle Schools, as well as connections to Beverly S. Sheffield Northwest District Park and other destinations.

Safe Routes to School (SRTS) projects include over 4600 total recommendations for improving safety for students walking and biking to school. Of those, 1864 recommendations rank high or very-high benefit and are the focus of implementation. All SRTS projects are selected for implementation using the following guiding principles: 1) Implement projects that have either a high / very-high overall benefit; or a high / very high cost / benefit score, 2) Make meaningful improvements walking and bicycling to as many schools as possible; 3) For the 2016 bond funding, balance funding equally per district, as per council direction; 4) Other available sources of funding will be leveraged to implement additional projects.

The Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program receives federal and local funds to encourage and facilitate active transportation for school children. In 2022, the Council of the District of Columbia passed the Safe Streets for Students Amendment Act with the goal to improve transportation safety infrastructure around schools, giving the SRTS team additional funding and direction towards improving school areas in the District.,

These projects provide comprehensive and coordinated approaches to making Austin’s streets safer by delivering critical safety improvements at high crash locations citywide.
