Network Outages
Although the City of Cleveland and Cuyahoga County do not expect large scale cellular network disruptions, large crowds lead to an increased use of bandwith and cell service can be compromised and slowed down. In the event of cellular outages, it is recommended that callers utilize WiFi calling. Travelers are also encouraged to have printed maps on hand in the event GPS services are temporarily unavailable.
If You See Something, Say Something
