Workshops in Colorado Highlight Safe Routes to Parks Lessons for All

At the end of April, we had a chance to visit two of the four Colorado communities participating in our 2024 Safe Routes to Parks Activating Communities program.

$1 Billion Safe Streets for All Funding – We Need to Plan for Safe Youth Mobility

Communities are planning for and rolling out improvements to slow traffic speeds, improve community mobility, and make it safer for people to travel around their communities.
