Calgary High School Active Transport Project

Most high school students get to school by car. At Youth En Route we know this from over 2,500 student travel surveys at 10 schools. The data shows us what needs to change to impact behavior. Our city can make big inroads into cutting greenhouse gas emissions if we are able to move those short trips to active travel. Our mission is to make Active Travel the preferred mode for youth, and we have a data-driven strategy, and track record of stretching funds to make it happen.
