“In 2020, our state scored just -8 out of 70 on Safe Routes’ funding report card. Four years later, we have a strong partnership with our DOT and are helping shape programs that invest in walking, biking, and safe routes to school. Thank you, Safe Routes!”

“The team was communicative with me throughout each step of the process. Knowledgeable about Safe Routes practices and deeply committed to the work. It felt like they were really considering the our city's unique needs, rather than offering a rinse-and-repeat consulting effort.”

“You are wonderful partners to have in this work and just great people to know, too.”
