Report Issues & Discover What’s New – The GoCOS App Just Got Better!
A few years ago, we introduced you to the GoCOS app, a handy tool for reporting road hazards and staying informed about city updates. Now, this powerful community tool has received its most significant upgrade yet – transforming how bike riders, pedestrians, trail enthusiasts, and all community members can work together to maintain our city’s pathways and public spaces.
What’s New (and Why It Matters for Bike Riders and Outdoor Enthusiasts)
Powered by GOGov, the upgraded GoCOS app is faster and more user-friendly, with features that help keep our streets and trails safe for everyone:
Easier Reporting for Road and Trail Issues
- Report potholes, debris in bike lanes, or downed trees on trails—all from your phone
- Flag broken streetlights or damaged trail signage that need attention
- Track your submissions to see when issues are resolved
Real-Time Alerts
- Get personalized notifications about road closures, trail conditions, and construction that could affect your ride.
- The updated interface makes it easier to find city resources
Special Note for Trail Users
The app now makes it especially easy to:
- Report washed-out trail sections after heavy rains
- Alert parks staff about fallen branches or tree hazards
- Request maintenance for overgrown vegetation encroaching on paths
How This Helps Improve Our Community
We’ve always encouraged using GoCOS to report problems and advocate for better infrastructure (remember our Spring Prep post?). With this update, it’s even more effective, helping the city address concerns faster and prioritize safer roads and trails.
