Active partner of Live Well San Diego, Circulate San Diego is a non-profit whose mission is to create excellent mobility choices and vibrant, healthy neighborhoods. Circulate San Diego has contributed over the years to a healthier and safer San Diego. Here is a summary of some of our programs that have made a great impact across the San Diego region this past year:

Walk This Way Presentations

During the 2017-2018 school year, Circulate San Diego staff reached 1,790 students during Walk This Way presentations as part of our Safe Routes to School education. We presented to 7 different schools predominantly in San Diego Unified School District, selected for their proximity to Vision Zero corridors and the Fatal 15 intersections, which are corridors and intersections with the highest pedestrian/car crash rates historically. The presentation taught students how to be safe on the street through a 5-step lesson for crossing intersections safely. Students were selected to come to the front to practice the 5-steps to support kinesthetic learning.

The Vision Zero approach aims to have zero pedestrian deaths by 2025 in the City of San Diego. Education to population groups closest to these dangerous corridors and intersections is important to fulfill that mission. In addition, our goal is to encourage active forms of transportation (walking and cycling), in an effort to reduce childhood obesity, car congestion/stress around schools, and to improve the air-quality.
