Saf​e Routes to School  at Northwoods!​



​Our Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program is an evidence-based approach to address safety concerns and provide more opportunities for our Northwoods students to walk and bike to school or at school. WCPSS joined with the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center and other partners to work with five elementary and/or middle schools to improve child pedestrian safety and support walking and/or biking to school - and Northwoods is lucky enough to be one of those schools!

As one of the five model schools in the project, Northwoods received technical assistance and funding to develop and implement a comprehensive Safe Routes to School plan. This effort also involves working with WCPSS and the Town of Cary to examine policies and practices that can improve safety.

We'd like to thanks all of our partners who helped make our priority project happen...and ahead of schedule! With the completion of the Boundary St. crosswalk improvements, the start of the 2017-18 school year will be much safer for the many students and parents who walk to school from nearby neighborhoods.  The improvements will also help slow traffic on this stretch of road, which will benefit all pedestrian and bicycle traffic, entering the Northwoods Greenway at this location!
