@greencommunities.bsky.socialWelcome to West Sechelt Elementary School, one of the 23 communities that are part of the nationwide #SchoolStreets movement.
This week, West Sechelt Elementary launched their School Street as part of this movement.

@cassiesmith.bsky.social#Ottawa, were looking for #SchoolStreets volunteers in Old Ottawa East.
You can help @envirocentre.bsky.social make school drop off hugs like this possible.
Volunteers welcome families, share info & help monitor barricades during school drop-off and pick-up times.
@mumsforlungs.bsky.socialInteresting insights here from @cyclinguk.bsky.social. Good to see that one of their YouGov polls this year revealed that 70% of people support #SchoolStreets - but think that only 49% of others do. Also interesting to see common misperceptions around the popularity of cycle routes and speed limits.
@walkriderochdale.org.ukNew report on #TheRouteForward from @cyclinguk.bsky.social - broadly, support for #ActiveTravel infrastructure (and particularly #SchoolStreets) is broader than people think, but successful trials/implementation requires a holding of political nerve.
@mumsforlungs.bsky.socialLiz really enjoyed presenting at the @ategov.bsky.social conference this week, sharing thoughts on #SchoolStreets and the importance of collaborative working across all sectors. If we’re serious about creating safer, healthier journeys to school, it takes everyone working together 💚. #MAP2026
@enobacon.urbanists.social.ap.brid.gyOptical Narrowing cues drivers to slow down and pay attention. Traffic patterns can be simplified and kids don't need to be driven to the front door of the school. #VisionZero #trafficEngineering #stuffInTheStreet #roundabouts #schoolStreets #bikewayNetwork #bollards #ModalFilter […]
@rholt.bsky.social@mumsforlungs.bsky.socialThanks to Nikita, a parent at Wendell Park Primary, for sharing her experience with us.
If this has inspired you to campaign for a School Street at your child's school, get in touch for a chat with our Schools Lead Anna: [email protected].
@mumsforlungs.bsky.socialIt's #CarFreeDay and we're celebrating #SchoolStreets!
Read how Hammersmith & Fulham went from a borough with no School Streets to starting its first-ever one. From jams and near-misses to "an oasis of calm, clean air and good vibes." Persistence paid off!
@solveschoolrun.bsky.socialWe are parents just like you, frustrated with how unsafe and stressful the school run can be. School Streets are amazing - when they work. And when they don't, there are reasons...
🫵 What are your experiences of School Streets?
@greencommunities.bsky.social🎉This school year is starting with a healthier, happier, and safer school zone for children and parents at École élémentaire publique Trille des Bois thanks to #SchoolStreets pilot led by @envirocentre.bsky.social
@greencommunities.bsky.socialThank you for being on location to capture the joy of this first pilot of #SchoolStreets in Ottawa! Details via @envirocentre.bsky.social envirocentre.ca/news-launchi... cc @ecologieurbaine.net @stephanieplante.bsky.social
@camcycle.bsky.socialA fantastic response for the recent Kidical Mass with over 200 people attending 🎉
"What an inspiring morning! The support for School Streets came through loud and clear - we want safer streets, cleaner air and space for more families to appreciate the joy of cycling."

@solveschoolrun.bsky.socialMore of this please!
🥳 When school streets are both substantial and enforced - they can look like this.
🚸 We believe all children and families should have a safe, healthy and fun school run like this.
Do you?
@rholt.bsky.socialHow about walkable, bikeable, livable neighborhoods with schools sited where kids can walk or bike to school? #SchoolStreets #BikeBus #WalkingSchoolBus
@880cities.bsky.social8 80 Cities is bringing #SchoolStreets back to #Toronto as part of the National Active School Streets Initiative, a program funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada and led by Green Communities Canada
