Safe Routes to School
Commute Options launched Safe Routes to School (SRTS) in 2005 as a way to encourage and educate Central Oregon children and parents on the benefits and safety knowledge of biking and walking to school. SRTS creates fun, convenient, and safe opportunities for children to walk and bike to and from school.
Commute Options is currently working with Elementary and Middle schools in the Bend La Pine School School District
