With the new bike lanes added along 6th Street, we’re sharing a few reminders to help everyone safely share the road.
Please remember the 3-foot passing rule, watch for cyclists, and remember that everyone has a right to use our roads.
Let’s keep 6th Street safe for everyone! 🚗🚲

Parents & Students: Kansas has a new law regarding cell phone use while driving.
When driving through an active school zone, drivers cannot have a mobile device in their hand.
Please put the phone down, slow down, and watch for students! 🏫💙
Help keep our students safe!

A bike helmet was left at Riverside Park. If it belongs to you, please contact City Hall to claim it. You will need to be able to identify the color to claim it!
