Number one is when I leave here, it looks like if I emerge from the mall onto Congress, there's a whole bunch of police activity, and people are telling me that it's blocked.
00:07
I'm not certain if it is.
00:08
I was wondering if you know...
00:09
Second question is are we still staying on Australian instead of using Greenwood?
00:19
That detours for the rest of the night, first of all.
00:23
And as far as the outlets,
00:25
I'm not aware of it, sir.
00:28
You could let me know if you need to make a detour, give me a call back.
00:31
Well, I'm just worried if I go that way, there won't be anywhere to go.
00:34
I'd have to turn left out to Congress, I would imagine.
00:37
Would you rather I just go out to one of the exits onto Palm Beach Lakes that has a turn signal and make a left going east on that?
00:46
Oh, you mean instead of going out to...
00:47
regular way to that traffic, like, yeah, go ahead and do that just to be on the safe side, because I don't have a supervisor in that area right now.
00:53
Yeah, it looks like I might be blocked getting between the exits and the mall down to Palm Beach Lakes on Congress.
00:58
All right, I'm going to go out the regular route, I mean the way out south of the mall type.
01:03
104. All right, thank you.
01:05
Thank you, 17.08,
01:07
17.08, go ahead.
01:09
Just want to let you know, I got a look to the north from Palm Beach Lakes up Congress,
01:14
and that exit by the mall that would...
01:16
If you're sending anything south, like the southbound 20 or the northbound 33, they won't be able to get back out to Congress.
01:23
I'm sorry, back out to Palm Beach Lakes from Congress there.
