Here at La Mesa Jewelry Buyer, we are all for any efforts to make La Mesa a more walkable city. That is why we are happy to support “La Mesa Kids Walk & Roll to School”. This Safe Routes program is inviting the public to attend one of their four Walkability Workshops being held at local schools.
This workshop will consist of a short Safe Routes to School training, a Walk Audit in the neighborhood to identify and document barriers to walking and bicycling, and a mapping session to prioritize recommendations. From the community input gathered at the workshop, a report will be developed for the City of La Mesa’s Public Works department to use when planning Safe Routes to School infrastructure improvements and to leverage funding for future projects.
Workshops are OPEN to the Public, including parents, neighbors of the school, surrounding churches or other similar groups, etc. Refreshments will be served. The City of La Mesa, in conjunction with WalkSanDiego and the La Mesa-Spring Valley School District, was awarded a Federal Safe Routes to School (SRTS) non-infrastructure grant to implement the “La Mesa Kids Walk & Roll to School Program.” For more information contact: Kim Shannon at 619-667-1319 or Juan Ramirez at 619-544-9255.
