The Bike the Beat program began in the fall of 2020 as a way to maintain social distance directives but keep communication open during the height of the pandemic.
Bike the Beat serves as a tool to help maintain community engagement between the Police Department and Oak Park residents.
RBOs hold regular virtual meetings in the neighborhoods they serve to discuss issues, report on crime trends and crime prevention tips, and answer questions. They provide helpful, practical information for residents in a monthly newsletter via email.
For more information on the RBO program and to sign up for email from your RBO, visit www.oak-park.us/rbo, call 708.386.3800 or email police@oak-park.us.
