1. Dixie Highway from Central Ave. to St. John Road will be closed approximately 9:30a-12p (or once all parade entries have cleared).
2. Traffic traveling south on Dixie Highway will be required to turn right onto St. John Rd to the Bypass to be routed around the downtown area.
3. Traffic traveling north on Dixie will be required to either take New Glendale Road to the Bypass or Poplar to Miles Street, to Ring Road. You will not be permitted to take Poplar to the Helmwood Plaza shopping center.
