Good morning, Sioux City.

On Friday morning, the 4th Annual Sioux City Metro Bike to Work Day brought over 100 cyclists to the Siouxland Chamber of Commerce parking lot—where local health and fitness vendors offered giveaways and local eateries served breakfast.

The event, part of a national effort to promote active transportation, encouraged residents to consider riding their bikes instead of driving every day.

Sioux City officials say the riverfront bike trail remains closed from Chris Larson Park boat launch to the South Dakota border due to flood damage, and permanent repairs including revetment, trail construction, fencing & turf reinforcement mat will go out for bids on June 17 with work finishing by late October. City and regional agencies are also advancing projects like the Floyd Connector Trail and railroad crossing improvements to better connect trails while keeping users safe.

Sioux City recreation coordinator Rachael Eskins said this year's Cone Park Trailfest will be held on May 31—an event that will bring local residents together for outdoor activities.

William Swearingen, a disabled veteran who has lived near Gordon Drive and South Fairmount Street for six years, said he was worried because drivers ignored the 35 mph limit — risking pedestrians while seniors crossed the street.

Sioux City Police noted that excessive speed contributed to eight accidents at the intersection — and urged drivers to slow down.
