Kinda chic. Kinda considerate. Kinda the whole vibe. ✨ Swipe for six ways to give your scooter or car ride main-character energy — helmet on, signs read, battery checked, pedestrians yielded to. Turns out you’ve had the “responsible rider and driver” look all along.
Welcome back, OSU students, and good luck on the year ahead! 🩶❤️O-H!!❤️🩶

The Franklinton floodwall with floodgates are going up on Greenlawn Ave and Harmon Ave due to heavy rainfall and rising river levels. Greenlawn Ave is closed between Front St and Harmon Ave, and the I-71 ramps at Greenlawn are closed. Harmon Ave is closed north of Frank Rd.
Have extra food waste? Bring them to one of our free food scraps drop-off locations so it can be composted instead of going to the landfill.
On a 2 or 3 lane road, drivers on BOTH SIDES of the road must stop when a bus is dropping off/picking up. Roads with 4+ lanes, drivers traveling the opposite direction of the bus don't have to stop. Yellow Lights on a bus mean drivers should prepare to stop, and STOP means STOP🛑
Public Service crews are deployed throughout the city to assist Columbus Recreation and Parks crews with removal of large storm debris in the right-of-way so safe movement and essential services can continue. When Columbus needs us most, we are ready to answer the call to serve.
If Tuesday’s severe weather affected you, we’re here to help. Resources are available for any neighbor in need, from meals and housing to getting power back on. When residents reach out, Columbus comes together. LEARN MORE: https://bit.ly/4fUnofE
