In 2019, the Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan Council of Governments, in coordination with the City of Fargo, is working with schools to create a Safe Routes to School (SRTS) plan. The plan will recommend how to make walking and biking to school easier, safer, and more comfortable for students and families. Recommended improvements will be made for all elementary and middle schools within the City of Fargo including West Fargo Public Schools, Fargo Public Schools, and Private Schools.

Please join us on one of the four dates shown to share your thoughts about walking and biking to school in Fargo. For more information, please visit the project website at

The Creative Bike Rack project, one of the City of Fargo’s public art initiatives, was officially launched in the downtown landscape on Sunday, June 24 at 1 p.m. Local artist and creator Jeff Knight engaged the local community for ideas and feedback during the place-making process. The design serves as a functional public art piece that brings awareness to the diversity of the community.

The goal of the Food Systems initiative is to help the community better understand what we do and ways to become involved. With the significant growth we have experienced in our local food system comes the need for more collaboration and partnerships so that we can all best serve the community to increase access to safe, nutritious and affordable food.
