Campus Drive crosswalk safety push gains college support
GCCC trustees push for a crosswalk on Campus Drive to protect dorm residents amid a city traffic study. They urge signs or a pedestrian activated flashing light, with talks on location, cost, and who pays. City staff note preliminary work on crossing signals and ADA ramps, estimated around 5000 dollars, aiming for a safe, well engineering solution.

Widening project on hold until spring in Garden City
The Kansas Avenue widening plan, funded partly by KDOT, is delayed as bids await city commission approval. Demolitions at 310 E. Kansas Ave and 1022 N. Sixth St. aid right of way compensation, with work planned on one side of the road. Finney County Garden City SWAT trained at the sites to simulate real scenarios.
