Roadway Safety Reminders
Pothole Alert: Melting snow and ice is a cause of potholes and rutting on roadways. Please drive carefully and approach standing water with caution, as it could conceal potholes. Report road damage to the city using the ‘Request for Service’ feature on our website.
Watch for Pedestrians & Cyclists: With an increase in people out walking and biking in spring, be sure to reduce your driving speed and be vigilant for pedestrians, especially in residential areas.
