Philadelphia Students Walk, Bike and Roll to School as Walktober Begins
Philadelphia is a city in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania (a consolidated city-county). Philadelphia's Office of Transportation and Infrastructure Systems said Safe Routes Philly and Vision Zero joined students on October 7 to celebrate Walk, Bike & Roll to School Day. The national event encourages students to walk, bike, scooter or skateboard to class while promoting traffic safety, healthy habits and awareness of safe routes to school.
Five Philadelphia schools took part in the local celebration, and the day also kicked off Safe Routes Philly's Walktober challenge, running from October 7 through Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day on November 18. City officials joined the Nebinger School walking group and bike bus, starting with a safety lesson at Weccacoe Playground before a roughly 10-minute ride to school.
