Bremen Elementary SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL TRAVEL PLAN October 9, 2012

Introduction The purpose of the Bremen Elementary Safe Route to School (SRTS) Plan is to encourage school age children to travel to school by means other than a motorized vehicle, specifically active methods of transportation such as walking or biking. The benefits of promoting active transportation models include encouraging increased physical activity and developing healthy habits, developing a sense of freedom and responsibility, and supporting an environmentally friendly activity while creating a safer area around the school. The Ohio Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program is funded by the Federal Highway Administration and administered by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT). The program supports projects and programs that enable and encourage walking and bicycling to and from school. The Ohio SRTS Program funds two types of projects: 1) Infrastructure Projects: Infrastructure projects, or engineering projects, include operational and physical improvements and establish safer and fully accessible pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, such as crossings, walkways, trails and bikeways. All infrastructure projects must improve conditions for students walking or bicycling within two miles of the target school. 2) Non-Infrastructure Projects: Non-infrastructure projects include education, encouragement, and enforcement activities intended to affect student or driver behavior, and evaluation activities to monitor impact of the SRTS program. The goal of SRTS programs is to provide pedestrians and bicyclists a safe way to travel to and from school. With community involvement, and efforts by schools and citizens, the program improves the health and well-being of children by enabling and encouraging students to walk or bike to school. SRTS programs improve infrastructure, making walking and bicycling a more appealing method of transportation for students. Through implementation of SRTS programs, results show reduction in traffic and air pollution, and encouragement for a healthy active lifestyle at an early age. The Ohio SRTS Program funds countermeasures in five categories called the 5 Es. The Five Es of Safe Routes to School: Engineering Strategies create safer environments for walking and bicycling to school through improvements to the infrastructure surrounding schools. These improvements focus on reducing motor vehicle speeds and conflicts with pedestrians and bicyclists, and establishing safer and fully accessible crossings, walkways, trails and bikeways. Education Programs target children, parents, caregivers, and neighbors, teaching how to walk and bicycle safely and informing drivers on how to drive more safely around pedestrians and bicyclists. Education programs can also incorporate personal security issues, as well as health and environmental messages. Enforcement Strategies increase the safety of children bicycling and walking to school by helping to change unsafe behaviors of drivers, as well as pedestrians and bicyclists. A community approach to enforcement involves students, parents, caregivers, school personnel, crossing guards and law enforcement officers. Bremen Elementary SRTS (Draft) Bremen, OH 1 Oct. 2012

Encouragement Activities promote walking and bicycling to school to children, parents and community members. Events such as Walk to School Day, contests such as a Frequent Walker/Bicyclist challenge, or on-going programs such as Walking School Bus or Bicycle Train can promote and encourage walking and bicycling as a popular way to get to school. Evaluation Evaluation is an important component of SRTS programs that can be incorporated into each of the other Es. Collecting information before and after program activities or projects are implemented allow communities to track progress and outcomes, and provide information to guide program development. Background The village of Bremen is located in Fairfield County, Ohio. Within the Village of Bremen, key individuals involved with the community and the school district were tasked with creating a successful SRTS Program (see next page for the SRTS Committee members information). The Bremen School Travel Plan targets Bremen Elementary for this study. This study includes a review of crash records from 2007 2010, results from a walk audit, identification of existing conditions, and determination of possible countermeasures and solutions. Specific improvement suggestions were developed for the school to address short, medium, and long term needs of students to encourage walking and biking.

SECTION 2: OUR SRTS VISION Our SRTS Vision: The BSAFFE Committee wishes to advocate for, support and promote walking and biking to school at Bremen Elementary. With the support of Safe Routes to School program, we hope to increase the number of students and residents who walk and bike through innovative and fun programming as well as improved facilities. SECTION 3: CURRENT STUDENT TRAVEL 3A. How many students live within walking and bicycling distance of school?

Are there any school or district policies that impact students walking or bicycling to school? District Bus Policies Policy: The transportation policies of the board are aimed at providing a safe, efficient, and economical method of getting students to and from school. The board provides school bus transportation to all elementary and secondary school students to the extent determined by the administration and approved by the board. Districts are not required to bus students who live closer than two miles to the school they attend. Most students within the school district utilize the bussing system provided or are driven to school by an adult. Forty-five percent of students live within two miles of the school where hazard bussing has been Bremen Elementary SRTS (Draft) Bremen, OH 4 Oct. 2012

implemented. Most of the pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students are driven to and from school by parents. School Travel Policies Policy: The primary consideration in all matters pertaining to transportation is the safety and welfare of student riders; the transportation program meets all requirements regarding the testing and approval of bus drivers, standards for buses and safe speeds. There are no restrictions or age requirements on bicycling to or from school. The bike rack is located on the north side of the building, adjacent to the staff parking lot. A school rule is that bicyclists are not allowed to travel through the north parking lot when arriving or leaving the school; they must travel on Strayer Avenue as the parking lot becomes busy with motorized vehicles and is not safe for students. Students who bike are released out of the north side door of the school and must walk their bikes to Strayer Avenue before mounting and riding. 3D. School Arrival and Dismissal Process There currently are two designated areas for students to be dropped off/picked up by motorized vehicles, and one designated area for the buses. The north parking lot (with entrances off of Ford Street and Adale Street) and the drop off in front of the school are designated for parents, while the designated bus area is on the south side of the school. Some parents choose to drop their kids off at the bus drop off/pick up as well. Students are only permitted to enter the school through entrances located on the south side of the building. There are two entrances for the students; one entrance is for pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students, the other entrance is for grades 1-4. Students are not permitted into the building before 9:00 AM unless under severe weather conditions. During the A.M. arrival, there is a staff member located at the student entrance for grades 1-4, and at kindergarten entrance. There is no staff monitor for the north parking lot throughout the AM arrival. Student drop off at front of school During dismissal, the school operates with a staggered release process. The pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students are released first, then grades 1-4. Students riding a bus wait inside the building for the arrival of their bus before boarding. Also, a Valet dismissal process takes place at the north side door for students whose parents pick them up by a vehicle or students who walk or bike to school (the dismissal time for these students starts at the same time the pre-k kindergarten and kindergarten students are released). Students are not allowed to walk or ride their bike through the parking lot; they must walk out to Strayer Avenue. During dismissal, there are staff members located at the exits for the kindergarten and grades 1-4 (at the doors), as well as staff located in the north parking lot for the Valet release. The district does not provide crossing guards or police officers serving the school and there is no student safety patrol program in place at the elementary school.

3E. Parent Attitudes towards walking and biking Reasons parents gave for not allowing their children to walk or bicycle to school include: 1) Residing too far away/outside of town 2) Weather or climate 3) Speed of traffic along route 4) Amount of traffic along route 5) Safety of intersections and crossings 3F. Safety Issues and Concerns The greatest safety concern parents have is distance. A good portion of the students live outside of the village, and it is not safe for the students to walk to school on the rural roads. Weather is also a major concern for parents. The traffic safety concerns are the amount of traffic, and the speed of the traffic along the different route. This provides an unsafe environment for students to utilize walking and/or bicycling to school. Other areas for concern include safety at intersections and crossings, crime, and sidewalk conditions. See Appendix B for a summary and break down of the parent and student surveys. Relevant traffic crashes There were no pedestrian crashes within the STP study area between 2007 and 2010. 3G. Walking and bicycling encouragement activities at the school. The elementary school does not currently provide activities that encourage walking and bicycling to school. However, there is a bi-annual Health and Safety Fair that has a class on bike safety. There is also a school program called the Mileage Club which rewards students for the miles they walk during recess. The school and community have plans to start a Bike Rodeo, Walking School Bus, and a Bike to school day. SECTION 4: KEY ISSUES IMPACTING SAFE WALKING AND BICYCLING TO SCHOOL 1) Many sidewalks near the school are in poor condition; they are deteriorating, cracking, crumbling, and uneven. Some crossings over driveways are not level. Sidewalks provide a safe and healthy option of travel for pedestrians, and the current conditions present potential tripping hazards for anyone utilizing these pathways. See pictures on the following page. Bremen Elementary SRTS (Draft) Bremen, OH 6 Oct. 2012

Northbound Strayer Ave. east sidewalk north of school Northbound Strayer Ave. west sidewalk across from school Eastbound Marietta St. north sidewalk between Oak St. & Bartlett St. 2) The existing crosswalks (or lack of) near the school present potential hazards for pedestrians. Existing crosswalk pavement markings on Strayer Avenue and along Marietta Street are faded and need to be restriped. There is no crosswalk on Angle Street across from the school; many students live in the apartments located southeast of the school and cross Angle Street. There are no crossing guards to assist students in the morning and afternoon hours. A Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) would be a good addition to increase visibility for a proposed Angle Street crosswalk.

These are activated by pedestrian pushbutton and can be solar powered or hardwired. Bremen Elementary SRTS (Draft) Bremen, OH 7 Oct. 2012

3) In addition to the crosswalks, there is a lack of ADA curb ramps at many of the crossings/intersections near the school. The existing curb ramps are not ADA compliant. In some cases, crosswalks do not have curb ramps installed. The potential hazards for not having ADA compliant curb ramps installed affects pedestrians, bicyclists, and persons using wheelchairs or scooters.

There are no educational opportunities for students to learn about walking or bicycling to school. There are no existing programs such as Walking School Bus, Bike Train, Walk/Bike-to- School, or a Bike Rodeo to teach students proper procedures to walk or bike to school. There is the Health & Safety Fair held every other year which incorporates bike and helmet safety, but is not geared for education on walking or bicycling to school.

SECTION 6: PUBLIC INPUT The first public meeting was held on Monday, August 6, 2012 at 7:00 pm at the Bremen Elementary School. Public meeting notices went out in the monthly water bill, which goes to all residents in Bremen. For this public meeting, no one, except members of the SRTS team (BSAFFE Committee) showed up. Therefore, instead of the public meeting, a committee meeting was conducted. The proposed recommended SRTS countermeasures, both infrastructure and non-infrastructure, were discussed in detail and the 12-month activity chart was also reviewed. Below is the Public Meeting Notice and in Appendix D is the sign-in sheet for the meeting. Since no residents showed up for the August 6 th public meeting, besides the residents on the BSAFFE Committee, it was decided that the School Travel Plan should be presented to the Village Council. On August 27, 2012, Eric Oberg presented the School Travel Plan to the Bremen Village Council. (Meeting Minutes are found in Appendix D.) There was one comment from the Village Council and that was from Councilperson Troy Tripp. He mentioned his concern about replacing the sidewalks that are brick in the infrastructure countermeasure recommendations. The Village would like to keep the existing brick sidewalks. They brick sidewalks could be taken up and re-level the base and then put back, but they would not like the brick sidewalks replaced with concrete. The majority of the sidewalks that need to be replaced are not the brick sidewalks.
