News Release
Lincoln County Kicks Off Safe Streets for All Project with Website and Survey
Lincoln County has initiated a countywide Safe Streets for All Plan that will enhance transportation safety, prevent injuries, and save lives across all Lincoln County roadways. A project website has been unveiled to inform the public about the project that can be found on the Lincoln County, SD webpage or directly at https://bit.ly/LincolnSSA
To help us better understand the public’s safety concerns, the County is encouraging the public to complete a 10-minute safety survey on the website. This is your opportunity to have your voice heard on roadway safety concerns. Later this spring and summer, Lincoln County will have public meetings that will provide results from the survey and a countywide roadway safety analysis. The website will be updated as the project progresses. Please visit periodically to stay informed and receive updates. Follow Lincoln County’s website and social media for updates.
There has been a request for a recount. The recount will be held at the Canton Depot in the Viking Room on April 23rd at 9:00 am.
Lincoln County is testing the tornado sirens at 10:15 am today, April 9th.

This work can stir up sediment in the water lines for a short time. It can also temporarily cause low water pressure at your property. Before washing laundry, please check the color of your water to avoid problems. If your water is discolored, run the cold water tap for 5 – 10 minutes and it should clear up. Thank you!
