5A. Non-infrastructure Countermeasure Recommendations For each “E”, list and describe strategies that your team has identified. In 1-2 sentences, explain the “need” or Issue, then briefly describe the countermeasure.

EDUCATION COUNTERMEASURES

EDUCATION

Issue Countermeasure

Because all students are provided busing, they do not know the proper techniques for doing so safely.

Continue to offer Safety Day and consider expanding the program into a week-long Safety Town program.

Parents don’t want their children walking or biking to school unsupervised.

Train parents and educators about starting a Walking School Bus and/or Dot-to-Dot program (through ODOT).

Because many students are provided busing, they do not know the proper techniques for doing so safely.

Start a Bike Rodeo program for 3rd graders to teach them proper bicycling techniques.


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.


Host an SRTS Meeting to inform parents/ neighbors/etc. about the goals of the Canfield SRTS program.

Medium and long term strategies (those that your team will undertake beyond 12 months): 1. Continue to incorporate pedestrian and bicycle education activities into the

elementary and middle school curriculum. 2. Continue to offer Safety Day/Safety Town and Bike Rodeo programs to students.

ENCOURAGEMENT COUNTERMEASURES

ENCOURAGEMENT


Start participating in Walk to School Day and Bike to School Day activities.


Start a Walking School Bus and/or Dot-to-Dot program. Either program will provide adult supervision for children walking to/from school.

Develop mileage clubs which create competition between classes, grade levels, and/or schools based on how far they have walked to and from school.

Medium and long term strategies: 1. Continue to participate in Walk and Bike to School Days. 2. Continue to offer walking clubs and mileage club competitions and develop

additional contests for students to participate in that offer prizes to students (such as new bike helmets).

ENFORCEMENT COUNTERMEASURES

ENFORCEMENT


Parents are concerned with the safety of crossings along the routes to school.

Start a Safety Patrol program at the elementary schools where students can help with the traffic and pedestrian flow at and near the school. Contact the local AAA branch (East Central AAA) for more information on getting materials and starting a program.

Parents are concerned with speeding and safety of crossings along the routes to school.

Send Adult Crossing Guard representative(s) to ODOT’s Adult School Crossing Guard Training Program.

Parents are concerned with speeding along the routes to school.

Continue to utilize speed trailers on roads near the schools throughout the school year (including at the beginning of the school year and after breaks).
