Sidewalk Cycling Laws in Wyoming

The rule
There is no statewide rule on sidewalk cycling — it is left to cities and counties in Wyoming. Wyoming's bicycle statutes are silent on sidewalk riding; regulation is left to municipalities under their general traffic-ordinance authority. Cheyenne and Casper allow sidewalk riding outside designated downtown business districts; Jackson restricts it in the Town Square area. Always check the municipal code before riding the sidewalk.
What this means in practice
Because Wyoming doesn't set a statewide rule, the answer is "it depends on the city." Central business districts, downtown cores, and school zones are the most commonly restricted areas. Always check the local municipal code before you ride on a sidewalk.
