Parent Attitudes towards walking and biking. Using the Parent Survey Summary Data Report generated by the National Center for Safe Routes to School, indicate the top 5 reasons impacting the decisions of parents who currently DO NOT allow their children to walk or bicycle to school. Reasons for not allowing children to walk or bicycle to school: Distance. Weather or climate. Amount of traffic along route. Safety of intersections and crossings. Speed of traffic along route. 22

24 3F. Safety Issues and Concerns. Summarize traffic safety issues and concerns that are gathered anecdotally from the team, parents and the community at large. Record your summary in the space below in 100 words or less. Many parents feel that it is unsafe for their child to walk to school because there are unsafe crossings along their route, especially along State Street and North Street. They also feel routes are unsafe because of the fear of predators along the route. Many parents also feel that the distance their child must walk to get to school is too great. Relevant traffic crashes. There were 39 crashes within 2 miles of the school (from ). The crashes resulted in 32 injuries and 0 fatalities. The number of crashes that involved bicycles was 18. The number of crashes that involved pedestrians was 21. 3G. Walking and bicycling encouragement activities at the school. Identify and describe activities at your school that support or encourage walking and bicycling. Activity After School Program Walking Activities in PE / Health Classes Family Fitness Challenge How it encourages walking or bicycling (1-3 sentences) Middle school students involved in this program take biking field trips around the city while learning aspects about bicycling safety. Students can participate in this program after school and in the summer. Students are given a pedometer and are taught how to take their heart rate. They then track the distances they have walked and changes in their heart rates. Students participate in the Family Fitness Challenge as part of the school curriculum. Through this program, students log their own and their family members physical activity. At the end of the year, they can attend the year-end program which has physical activity stations, cooking classes, and other activities. 23

28 SECTION 5: RECOMMENDED SRTS COUNTERMEASURES 5A. Non-infrastructure Countermeasure Recommendations EDUCATION COUNTERMEASURES (to implement in the next 12 months) EDUCATION Issue Parents don t want their children walking or biking to school unsupervised. Because children currently don t walk, they are unaware of proper walking behaviors. Countermeasure Work with parents and educators to plan for a Walking School Bus program and attend ODOT training. Collaborate with community organizations to start a Safety Town program for kindergarten / 1 st grade students. Because children currently don t bike, they are unaware of proper biking behaviors. Because children currently don t bike, they are unaware of proper biking behaviors. Parents don t want their children walking or biking to school unsupervised. Start a Bike Rodeo program for 2 nd / 3 rd grade students. Utilize ODOT s Every Move You Make, Make It Safe campaign to educate students (and parents) about the proper ways to walk and bicycle to school, as well as the benefits of doing so. Share the SRTS plan with parents, staff, and neighbors during highly attended open houses and parent-teacher conferences. Medium and long term strategies (beyond 12 months): 1. Continue to incorporate pedestrian and bicycle safety education into the curriculum. 2. Continue to offer Safety Town and Bike Rodeo programs to kindergarten/1 st grade and 2 nd /3 rd grade students (respectively). 3. Promote public awareness of traffic (vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle) laws. 4.

29 ENCOURAGEMENT Children live far from school, so walking or bicycling to school isn t as encouraged. Students need additional encouragement to walk and bicycle more. Students, and their families, need additional encouragement to walk and bicycle more. Develop mileage clubs ( Purple Sneakers ) which create competition between classes, grade levels, and/or schools based on how far they have walked. Start celebrity student walking groups where high school students (including football players, band members, etc.) walk with younger students. Develop a walking/biking club where students and families can meet at specified trails and walk/bike the trails as a group. Medium and long term strategies (beyond 12 months): 1. Continue mileage club competitions and develop additional contests for students to participate in that offer prizes to students (such as new bike helmets). 2. Start a Walk/Bike Across Fremont Day where students go on walking or biking field trips around town, stopping at historic sites around the city. ENFORCEMENT COUNTERMEASURES (to implement in the next 12 months) Issue Parents are concerned with speeding along the routes to school. Parents are concerned with speeding and safety along the routes to school. Parents are concerned with safety along routes to school. Parents are concerned with safety around schools.

39 SECTION 6: PUBLIC INPUT A public meeting to discuss the Fremont City Schools STP was held on January 21, 2014 at Fremont Middle School as part of the School Board meeting. Key feedback from that meeting is outlined below; materials from the meeting are included in Appendix C. 38 Public Input Process: Presented at FCS School Board Meeting Date: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 Target Audience: SRTS Team members, School Board, parents, community members Key Input Received: The Fremont STP was presented to the public on January 21 st at the FCS School Board meeting. The following input was received from Team Members and the audience regarding the proposed countermeasures included in the STP: To start an adult crossing guard program, would the crossing guards need to be hired, as a paid position? It was explained that this can be a paid position if the district chooses. However, the grant money cannot be used to pay the adult crossing guard their salary. You are able to use the grant money to cover the cost of their equipment (vests, whistles, stop signs, etc.), but the district is not permitted to pay their salary from the grant money. Is this a one-time only grant or can the district reapply in coming years? It was explained that the district may apply every year; however, priority will be given to new applications each year. Is possible to add townships to a later application? It was explained that this would not be possible if the district wanted to use the same School Travel Plan (focusing on the buildings that are within the city limits). However, if the district wanted to write a plan with Ballville or Lindsey, a new School Travel Plan could need to be developed for those schools. How many years will this program be around? It was explained that SRTS is covered under the current Transportation Bill; however, it is unclear what will happen when that Bill expires. How much money did the state receive for this program? It was explained that the state has approximately $4 million in grant money for this program. How do you help to ensure that the district is able to receive the money it has applied for? Are there tricks? Being a first-time applicant is a benefit, the district being able to match a project or a portion of any project, and the more students you are able to impact with the money are all ways to help boost the application. Do you have to include non-infrastructure projects as well as the infrastructure projects? There are grant applications for both infrastructure projects and non-infrastructure projects. Do you need to submit a new School Travel Plan every year? It was explained that there is no need to submit a new School Travel Plan unless you want to include a different area (for example, if Lindsey wanted to partner with FCS and work on a plan for Washington Elementary). Otherwise, the existing plan could be used if there were additional projects identified in it that were desired to implement. Have any traffic counts been completed as part of the work that has been done so far? It was explained that this is not a part of this process. It was

40 recommended that FCS check with the ODOT representative to see if this is something that could be included in the grant (eligible for grant dollars). 39

61 APPENDIX C: PUBLIC MEETING MATERIALS

62 Parent invitation sent home and placed on FCS web site. Information was also announced on local radio station. January 10, 2014 Dear Parent/Guardian: Fremont City Schools is partnering with the City of Fremont for the purpose of submitting a Safe Routes to School grant application. The goal of Ohio's Safe Routes to School Program is to assist communities in developing and implementing projects and programs that encourage and enable children in grades K-8 to walk or bike to school safely. Last November, parents were asked to complete surveys about how students travel to and from school and representatives from the Ohio Department of Transportation conducted site visits to the schools to observe student entry and dismissal procedures. All of this information, as well as recommendations, will be included in the district s grant application. We will be presenting the draft Safe Routes to School grant application during the FCS Board of Education Meeting on Tuesday, January 21, 2014 at Fremont Middle School beginning at 5:30 p.m. Parents and community members are invited to attend and provide feedback. After this meeting, the grant application will be revised and finalized for submission on February 28, The grant application will include the following five components: Engineering Creating operational and physical improvements to the infrastructure within two (2) miles of schools. Improvements will reduce speeds and potential conflicts with motor vehicle traffic and establish safer and fully accessible crossings, walkways, trails and bikeways. Education Teaching children and caregivers about transportation choices, instructing them in lifelong bicycling and walking safety skills and launching driver safety campaigns. Enforcement Partnering with local law enforcement to ensure traffic laws are enforced in the vicinity of schools, including enforcement of speed, yielding to pedestrians in crossings and proper walking and bicycling behaviors, and initiating community enforcement such as crossing guard programs. Encouragement Using events and activities to promote walking and bicycling. Evaluation Monitoring and documenting outcomes and trends through the collection of data. Please contact me if you have any questions/concerns. We hope to see you on January 21 st. Thank you. Sincerely, Dr. Traci L. McCaudy Superintendent of Schools 500 W.
