The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), through the Planning Assistance for Rural Areas (PARA) program, awarded funding to Yuma School District One to prepare the Multimodal Planning Study. The Yuma School District One Multimodal Planning Study will focus on the comprehensive evaluation of the daily transportation habits, needs and safety concerns of 15 elementary and middle schools in the Yuma School District One boundaries.

The purpose of the Yuma School District One Multimodal Planning Study is to enable Yuma School District One to evaluate the existing student drop-off/pickup areas, bus routes, pedestrian routes and bicycle routes at each of the 15 school campus locations to enhance the safety and convenience of access for all modes of transportation for each school site.
