Traffic Update: West Gannon Avenue Reopened 🚧✅ Good news, Zebulon. Following the recent utility repair related to the water main break, paving and road marking operations on West Gannon Avenue have been completed and the detour has been removed. Gannon Avenue is now back open to normal traffic. 🛣️ Thank you for your patience and understanding while crews worked to restore the area. We appreciate your cooperation. Safe travels.
With temperatures climbing, it’s important to remember our pets need help staying cool too.
A few simple ways to keep them safe:
• Keep plenty of fresh water nearby
• Try to avoid walks during the hottest part of the day
• Check the pavement before heading out because if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for their paws
• Never leave your pet in a parked car
• Give them a pet-safe frozen treat to help cool down
Koda’s reminder is simple. Slow down, stay cool, and take care of your four-legged family members this summer.
