It's pretty easy to say that when it isn't your walk which is being doubled or tripled in winter. The point is to get people to walk to school year round, that's pretty directly contradictory with that policy. I'm pretty sure drivers would be screaming bloody murder in similar situations.
playing around with googlemaps in the area show 3 minutes extra time if the person lives right by a trail entrance.
I thought you wanted people to use active transportation for better health, giving them shortcuts won't help those fat little children burn any extra calories
