Municipality of the County of Kings

Published purpose

"The Municipality of the County of Kings is seeking funding for the development of a Safe Routes to Schools Strategy. In July of 2021, Municipal Council accepted Active Kings County: An Active Transportation Plan for the County of Kings. This document highlighted the need to establish a safe route to schools strategy. This planning study will undertake both strategy development and the design of active transportation infrastructure for the schools within our region. As a rural municipality, the siting of some of our schools is a barrier, as pedestrian and cyclist infrastructure requires further studies for low-density areas, and can be hard to accommodate on high-traffic highway routes.
