When this happens, traffic may be re-routed to Second Avenue where the traffic posts will begin to allow vehicle traffic through when possible.
It is strongly recommended that residents who do not need to travel during this time do not do so. If you must travel through town during the race, please exercise patience and consider utilizing the following alternate routes:
