SAFETY CITY EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX

Safety City

The Safety City Educational Complex is part of Safety City Park.  The mini city provides early education for elementary school children about vehicular, pedestrian, bicycle and fire safety. Safety City features child-size setting buildings complete with paved streets and sidewalks, working traffic signals and traffic signs. Children are able to practice and demonstrate their safety skills in participatory activities. Please check the Safety City Educational Complex website for more information about Community Days and Christmas in Safety City.
