Bike Patrols are an effective policing strategy that allows officers to go into areas where Patrol vehicles are unable to go. Bicycle patrols have continued during the day shift and the first half of the evening shift. In support of this effort, the department purchased battery assisted bicycles that allow officers to respond to calls faster than most cruiser equipped officers in the downtown area.
Bike Patrols are used for the following details:
- Downtown
- Parades
- Third Thursdays
- Live on the Lake
