Abstract

Introduction: the research aims to create safe spaces for children on their way to school. Environmental sustainability is a critical issue in current urban development, and this study seeks to address it comprehensively. Methodology: mobility patterns were identified, and opinions were collected through questionnaires administered to families. These data were essential for designing educational, technological, and urban actions in collaboration with educational centers, family associations, and local administration. Interactive online maps were developed using uMaps and Open Street Maps, accessible and collaborative tools that highlight safe school routes and conflict areas. Results: the collected data and resulting maps serve as references, helping to identify dangerous zones and implement traffic safety measures. Discussion: the results indicate that interactive maps help improve safety and foster collaboration to achieve sustainable mobility. Additionally, they promote children's autonomy and create a sense of community belonging. Conclusions: interactive online maps have demonstrated the benefits of safe school routes, involving citizens in creating safer and more sustainable educational environments and improving road safety in the school community.
