Cedar Rapids Emergency Numbers Listed for City Aid
A scrambled list of hotlines and department numbers appears for Cedar Rapids including Highway Patrol after hours and medical society references. It provides multiple 10 digit style contacts such as 366 7654 402 348 1210 and 398 5353 with terse labels like Information Referral and Medical Society.
