The Illinois Department of Transportation is seeking proposals through the Safe Routes to School program for projects that help children walk and bike to school. Administered by IDOT using federal funds, Safe Routes to School supports projects and activities that improve safety and reduce traffic in areas around elementary and middle schools. Improvements can include new sidewalks, efforts to reduce speeding and other traffic offenses, public education and outreach programs. Successful applications must demonstrate how their proposals encourage students to walk or bike. Eligible applicants include school districts, local governments, metropolitan planning organizations and nonprofit associations. Local matching funds are not required. For more information, visit idot.illinois.gov or email DOT.SafeRoutes@Illinois.gov. Applications will be accepted starting Sept. 24, however, those interested in applying are urged to visit the website now to become familiar with the process and the materials that will need to be submitted. The deadline to apply is Nov. 19. The awards will be announced in March.
