Full Notification

Los Altos Police will be celebrating the 21st Annual International Walk to School Day with local youth tomorrow, Wednesday, October 4, 2017. There will be many children and parents both walking and biking to school, so motorists are urged to follow all rules of the road to help our youth reach school safely.

• Allow a bit of extra time in your morning and afternoon commute
• Abide by all posted speed limits, especially near schools
• When passing cyclists from behind, remember to provide 3-feet of clearance
• Look out for crossing guards around most elementary schools who will be stopping traffic so children can safely cross the street

International Walk to School Day seeks to raise awareness of the need to create safer routes for walking and bicycling and emphasize the importance of issues such as increasing physical activity among children, pedestrian safety, traffic congestion and concern for the environment. For more information about Walk to School Day, visit www.walkbiketoschool.org.
