Did you SEE the new crosswalk flags at Greenwood Ave N / N 105th St intersection?

With support from and Safe Routes to School incentive program, our bike bus volunteers installed two sets of "see me" crosswalk flag sets at every corner of this busy intersection. This supports safer crossings for our students within the walk-zone of Viewlands.

We received 3 congratulations from passers going by 🙌

Next up: We have plans to install crosswalk flag sets at the busy intersection of Holman Ave / 3rd Ave NW. Stay tuned!
