Welcome to Moscow, Idaho’s Safe Routes to School website!

Safe Routes to School is a national program meant to encourage, educate, enforce, engineer and evaluate the walking and biking situations in our communities, especially around our schools.  The result is better health, less congestion and less conflict areas around our schools.

SR2S works with all 7 Elementary Schools and Moscow Jr. High!

Parents, teachers and educators, be sure to check out our RESOURCES tab for lots of ideas of how to teach safe travel at home and in the classroom.
