Abstract

This is a brief condensation of a comprehensive technical report, "School Trip Safety Program Guidelines" by ITE Technical Committee 4A-1. The report emphasizes the "process", its participants, and issues that should be considered. The most important aspect of the school trip safety program is the establishment of a continuing school trip safety process. The six phases of the safety program are listed and discussed. Several tables are presented that outline a typical set of group responsibilities for a school trip safety committee as well as a table which outlines some potential solutions for some typical school walk route deficiencies. The various chapters of the full report are outlined. The general overall responsibilities of school traffic safety committee are listed.
