TxDOT Pedestrian Safety Street Team

We are seeking energetic and outgoing individuals to join our WALKR Street Team, an integral part of TxDOT’s statewide Pedestrian Safety initiative. This campaign aims to enhance pedestrian safety across all 25 TxDOT districts, with activations focused on cities with the highest rates of pedestrian-related traffic crashes. Kicking off during National Pedestrian Safety Month, this initiative reminds both drivers and pedestrians to stay alert and watch out for each other.

As a member of the WALKR Street Team, you will represent TxDOT’s Pedestrian Safety initiative. This involves wearing backpack billboards and walking predetermined routes at busy intersections to create a strong visual presence and maximize community impact. You will spend most of your shift outdoors, actively walking and engaging with the public, while maintaining a positive, approachable, and energetic attitude.

• Engage with drivers and pedestrians.
• Distribute branded slap band giveaways.
• Activate campaign safety messages when cars are stopped.
• Ensure all routes and safety protocols are followed.

Your role is to bring this campaign to life by being the face of WALKR on the streets. You will create a visual and interactive experience that leaves a lasting impression on drivers and pedestrians.

• Wear a backpack billboard while walking pre-determined routes at busy intersections.
• Be active, visible, and engaging throughout your shift, with most of your time spent walking outdoors.
• Hand out branded slap band giveaways to drivers and pedestrians.
