Where are Safe Routes plans
being done?
Safe Routes to School in Connecticut
has been inspired by several other successful models in other states
and other countries. These include programs in California, Maryland,
Minnesota, New York, Texas, Washington, Canada, Great Britain, and
Australia.
   
Francisco Gomes has worked with
several communities in Connecticut including: Greenwich, Manchester,
New Britain, Norwich, and Stamford. In each community, significant
measures were taken to improve the roads and sidewalks around schools.
These changes took effect within one to two years of the Safe Routes
plan, with some improvements being made as soon as issues were identified
during the Safe Routes process.
