Bike & Roll to School Day is May 4!
National Bike & Roll to School Day promotes pedestrian safety and the importance of daily physical activity for children's health and wellbeing. The City of Frisco along with the Frisco Police Department, Fire Safety Town and Frisco ISD encourage students and parents to bike and roll together.
Learning and practicing proper pedestrian habits are important life skills. With students returning to school, keep an eye out for the school zone flashing lights both in the morning and in the afternoon. Watch a Pedestrian Safety video and learn tips to help students get to school and back home safely. Together, we can make our community a safe place to Walk ‘n Roll.
Here's how to get involved:
1. Take the pledge to Walk 'n Roll safely to school.
2. Download a certificate to acknowledge you took the pledge.
3. Share it with your family and friends, and encourage them to take the pledge.

Walk, don't run across a street.
Always wear a helmet when you bike, scooter or skate.

Teens
Safe choices can make a big difference inpreventing injuries among teen drivers, cyclists and pedestrians.

Put away technology and stay alert. It is against the law to text while driving.

The City of Frisco has installed a Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) at several middle school crosswalks. The RRFB alerts drivers that a pedestrian is ready to cross the street. The RRFB uses bright yellow lights that flash when a pedestrian pushes the crosswalk button. Read more about this supplemental warning device (PDF).
