This authorizes an interlocal agreement with CAMPO, the region's transportation planning organization, to develop four transportation planning studies plus a refresh of the city's Safe Routes to School Infrastructure Plan. That Safe Routes plan guides where Austin builds the sidewalks, crossings, and bike connections kids use to get to school, and the studies shape how future transportation projects get prioritized. Austin's share is the local match, not to exceed $671,743, which is available in the Capital Budget of Austin Transportation and Public Works.
