39 Walkers/Bikers Quite a few walkers (5-7+), two I saw from 61 (others diverted to playground / back door) a few others were walking the wrong side of the road down North St. From Carlton 3 bikers, 2 from Goodell and 1 from the Carlton (east side) Bus System Buses entered from the west (Hwy 61) Drop off in designated side lot area, right in front of doors. Minimal hazardous interactions Parent Drop-off (Car) Cars dropping off A few drop offs on the opposite side of North Street. Notice a few u turns and many distracted drivers Majority of drivers properly maneuvered the crosswalk
40 Crossing Guards/Patrols 2 student patrols walk along Stine to cross any students that may be walking to school between 7:55 ** Continued to be walkers/bikers and heavier traffic as arrival neared the tail end.** Opportunity for improvement No adult supervision outside of view through office windows Traffic Traffic levels were reasonable, mode split helps a lot. A few cars drop off on the opposite side of the street, witnessed two u turns A few cars overshot the drop off and merged into the handicap spot to drop off A few vehicles stayed for 15+ min, but timing caused minimal if any delay Many distracted drivers on cell phones
41 Parent Drop-off (Car) Parents started lining up at 2:40. About 7 deep on North side of North St., 3-4 on South side, Cars parked in parking lot, and on both sides of Goodell. Majority of students leaving front of school are picked up) Bus System Buses line up in two rows in designated west lot. Once students are loaded, buses all leave, one by one, in an orderly fashion One bus line crosses Hwy 61, and begins dropping off students immediately upon crossing onto Old Hwy 61 Walkers/Bikers Bikers left down Goodell, main concern is restricted lane access due to parked cars on each side, and poor road conditions (pot holes throughout). A group of approximately 10 walkers departed after much traffic is gone (3:10 ish) and are accompanied by crossing guards. Additional walkers in the afternoon (more than likely drop offs in the morning when parent is going to work)
42 Crossing Guards/Patrols Cross walk crossing guards are out prior to school dismissal (2:55) Patrols accompany walkers and bring them all the way home (4-5 blocks away in some instance) Traffic Increased amounts of U-turns Most traffic flowed out onto 61 or around Goodell Follow crossing guard instructions well

45 Create a built environment that encourages safe bicycle and pedestrian travel, as well as a culture that promotes walking and biking as a fun alternative to automobiles through policy and promotional events. Provide a culture that embraces walking and biking as fun alternatives for travel, while creating and sustaining infrastructure that encourage these activities while placing an emphasis upon safety above all else.
