167, 196. When did you have them shutting Main Street off? Let me have the light.
00:04
Pretty bit of flood traffic around here now.
00:07
Sure cars we could have coming down from Main Street now, the better.
00:13
No, not yet.
00:15
We still got a half hour before we're going to leave here, so it'll probably be about 15 minutes before, maybe 10.
00:25
If it's too crowded with people, we can shut, we can just shut Main Street down.
00:31
If you want to do that.
00:36
Yeah, that's what I was saying, that at least they could up the light, stop traffic and coming down Main Street.
00:47
That's 270, if I got me that.
00:49
I'll start shutting down up right here.

There's somebody that can give 217 a hand with all the cones and everything he's got to get out over on that direction side.
01:05
Got one notice, good now.
01:11
We've just got so many people on the road that's just stacking traffic up, so I guess if we can get this shut off better.

212 are you down there?
01:30
Negative, I was going to help 217 with his phones before I made my way down there.
01:36
Okay, that sounds good.

Just as soon as you get down there, just let us know and you can shut down Main Street, just push them water or stay.
