Mahtomedi Schools has been working hard to update its Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Plan, which keeps the district eligible for technical assistance and grants for safety improvements that encourage students to walk and bike to and from school. MnDOT’s consultant assigned to our plan update effort, Alta, has completed two preliminary reports—a  SRTS Mahtomedi-Engagement Summary and a draft Issues and Opportunities report.  Both will feed into the final plan being developed this spring, with guidance from our local planning team (Kate Andersen, Erin Roche, Ian Harding, Bob Goebel, and Paul Hoff).

If you’re interested in making our community safer for schoolchildren, please take a look and send any feedback on them to SRTS planning team and MAGI member Erin Roche at erin.roche@yahoo.com by Monday, April 10.
