Aging drivers, emergency preparedness and response, population growth, urban sprawl, federal and state standard compliance, data access and security... these are just a few of the traffic safety and management challenges facing local government agencies today. 3M solutions are designed with this environment in mind to help agencies improve productivity and deliver results.

Featured Solution
Safe Routes to School Safe Routes to School
Congress put funding in the current federal highway bill (SAFETEA-LU) to address national concern for our children's health and safety. The Safe Routes to School (SRTS) initiative provides $612 million through 2009 so that communities can enable children (including those with disabilities) to more safely walk and bicycle to school, encourage a healthy and active lifestyle among children, support activities that make walking more appealing and safe, and to reduce traffic, fuel consumption and air pollution near schools.
