You may have noticed a new sign on Highway 160 at Michigan Street! There are now several of these crosswalk signs around town to help keep children safe on their way to school.

Increased patrols in school zones have already helped slow traffic, but officers were still seeing drivers fail to stop for pedestrians. These new signs serve as an extra reminder for motorists to always watch for—and stop for—anyone in the crosswalk.

Our top priority is keeping students and parents safe as they head to and from school each day.

This morning our Utility Crew was hard at work—not just on Main Street, but under it too! A leaky valve under the Highway needed replacing, and with today’s cooler temps 🌤️ and no rain 🌧️ in sight, the crew took the perfect opportunity to get the job done.

The valve was several feet beneath the asphalt, so the crew hand-dug 🪣👷 their way under the Highway to make the repair. Water service was only briefly interrupted for RCB Bank 🏦, so the rest of town stayed safe from any shut-off worries 🙌.

If you happen to drive by 🚗 and see our crew in action, be sure to give them a honk 📣 and a wave 👋 to show your support!

The Oxford Police Department is committed to making sure every student using the Safe Route to School stays safe. New signs have been ordered and placed along College Street in front of the elementary school, with more to come in the weeks ahead!

Please keep an eye out for these signs, remember to slow down in school zones, and always stop for anyone in a marked crosswalk. Together, we can help make this school year safe for all our students!
