Network calls
The Minnesota SRTS Network call is a monthly knowledge-sharing opportunity for communities working on Safe Routes to School. On behalf of MnDOT’s MnSRTS Program we partner with Move Minnesota to facilitate a monthly Network call, typically held on the first Thursday of the month at 10:00 a.m.
If you aren’t already on the email list to receive login information, please email us at [email protected]
