This
week the Lincoln Street Department was out making the streets safer
for our Lincoln College Students. Crews added fresh white reflective
stripes to designate the secure crossing areas on North Ottawa
Street. The road runs through the college campus and foot traffic
during the school year is quite substantial. To add to the
continuity between the two sides of the street workers also used the
Lynx stencil to apply white paw prints that match the purple prints
on the sidewalks.
