Thankful for opportunities like this to connect with students and share important pedestrian and bike safety skills. Our Safe Routes team had a great time working with this group of students! 🚴

East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission visited a Menasha Head Start classroom this week to talk about Pedestrain Safety and Helmet Safety. The kids did an amazing job learning some safety rules and practicing them outside.

Warmer weather means more people are out walking, biking, and rolling through our neighborhoods.

- Stay alert at intersections and crosswalks
- Slow down and give space near cyclists

Whether you’re driving, biking, or walking – we all share the road. Let’s keep it safe for everyone!
