When this finally disband,

00:02

the students and the parents' teachers who are here agreed to take the sidewalk on the way back.

00:08

So we're going to reverse this plan on the north side of 26th Street heading west.

00:14

So let the units know that are deep up to the brief.

00:16

We're doing the same plan which will reverse it the other way around and supposedly now we're going to be on the sidewalk.

00:22

Hopefully.

00:27

Okay,

00:28

all right, ten, four, so whenever this spans or whenever they start marching in opposite direction, it's going to be the same route but the opposite way on the north side of 26th Street, westbound, all the closures, everything is good.

00:47

Thank you. We have a bunch of cars.

00:50

Can we get some units who are not really needed where they're at to start blocking, at least setting up westbound on 26th and Kedzie?

01:00

All right, T6 and Ketty.

01:02

Can I get some units over there to start setting up for the closures westbound on 26th and Kedzie?

01:11

$10,000.

01:12

Just so you know, they're going to get on the sidewalk,

01:16

and then we're going to have the bikes follow them on the street.

01:18

So the students should be getting on the sidewalk, and then we're going to be following them on the street.

01:23

Just make sure we get KEDZ closed off for now.

01:29

All right, do you want to close now?
