Spring 2019 Travel Survey
The City of Bellevue is seeking travel data on how students travel to and from school and we need your help in distributing this survey to the parents at your school. This annual survey will help us evaluate our strategies for the Bellevue SchoolPool program, which aims to reduce drop-off and pick-up congestion at schools.
Please click on this survey link to participate in the survey. The short, five-question survey for each school-aged child, is live until Friday, June 21, 2019.
