PFPD tweets: "Officers assigned to Bike Patrol are spending more time in the parks to ensure they are safe and an enjoyable asset to the community. We have seen a drastic increase in the number of calls for service in the area of Falls Park, commonly known as the "One Way", which is the bridge that leads to the island beyond the park. People can enjoy the area of the park downstream from the bridge but should be certain to adhere to the signs posted by Avista."
