Project Overview

In spring 2018, crews completed improvements for the Wing Luke & Van Asselt Safe Routes to School (SRTS) project, making it  safer and easier for kids, families, and neighbors to walk and bike to Wing Luke and Van Asselt Elementary Schools along S Cloverdale St and 37th Ave S. 

This project was part of Seattle's Vision Zero program to end traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2030.

  • New sidewalks and curb ramps on the north side of S Cloverdale St between Beacon Ave S and Martin Luther King Jr Way S
