please note that riding bikes on downtown sidewalk is prohibited. Due to the large number of pedestrians walking, diners eating outdoors, and shoppers stepping out of shops, the sidewalk is not a safe place to ride a bicycle. For everyone's safety, the City asks you to dismount and walk your bicycle on downtown sidewalks. Thank you for your cooperation.
Riding a bicycle on downtown sidewalks is punishable by a $100 fine.
