More and more school districts are adopting Safe Routes to School and other programs to promote walking and biking, with improving bike parking a key component when planning their programs. Providing convenient, safe, secure, bike parking for both students and teachers encourages bicycling to and from school, promoting healthier lifestyle benefits for riders, reducing traffic congestion and supporting clean air initiatives.
