The Morongo Valley Basin in Southern California, which includes the areas of Joshua Tree, Yucca Valley and Twentynine Palms in San Bernardino County, is embarking on the development of an Active Transportation Plan. The Morongo Valley Active Transportation Plan (MV Plan) has developed a stakeholder committee to discuss and provide major feedback for the plan--which will include Safe Routes to School components and walking/biking connections to Joshua Tree National Park. To develop the plan, walk audit assessments are being conducted near schools in the area and will also be incorporated into the San Bernardino County Safe Routes to School Plan. The Safe Routes to School component of the MV Plan is unique in that stakeholders will work with a local artist to develop an art “zine” on safety tips for walking to school. Local staff from the Safe Routes Partnership attended a walk audit at Twentynine Palms Junior High Schools and we are excited to be a part of the stakeholder committee.
