• Long-planned Boise River Greenbelt bridge at 52nd Street receives financial boost (idahonews.com) — Garden City’s long-planned Boise River Greenbelt bridge at 52nd Street just secured a key local funding match, moving the project closer to construction. The new connection behind Expo Idaho will eliminate a half‑mile on‑street detour, improving safety and convenience for people walking and biking through Garden City and across the broader Treasure Valley Greenbelt system. 
• Mixed Reactions Online After Garden City's New Greenbelt Law (1035kissfmboise.com) — High‑speed e‑bikes and e‑scooters are now banned on Garden City’s stretch of the Greenbelt, after complaints from residents and safety concerns from police.
