Traffic challenges abound with work on sidewalks and festival

As the sidewalk upgrades continue on Burkesville Street and the hour of the closure of the square comes up at noon today, traffic is challenged. This photo is an example, made yesterday afternoon when a vehicle slipped off the street and law enforcement and emergency services were called to assist. The word of the day is, if you're in a hurry, please take the Veterans Memorial Bypass and avoid traffic slow downs. Comments | Permalink
