My sidewalks are always covered in snow in the winter. Can we still walk to school?

Answer brought to you by Massachussets Safe Routes to School

Walking is always an option, regardless of the time of year— it just involves a little extra planning during snowy months. The people or departments responsible for snow removal prioritize walking school bus routes. SRTS outreach coordinators can help with maps.  With a good plan and some community support, walking can take place year-round. After all, we’re hearty New Englanders, an occasional Nor’easter won’t deter us!
