(Undated) —  Drivers should watch for extra kids on the streets this morning and afternoon (Wednesday) as Minnesota students are participating in Bike and Walk to School Day.

MnDOT’s Joseph Palmersheim says, “this is a chance for students to learn how to walk and bike in a safe way along with their peers or in group settings which are generally safer ways to learn how to cross a street or to navigate the bike/pedestrian infrastructure in the town they are in.”

More than 130 schools in the state are participating in Bike to School Day events.
