Go ahead. Okay, it seems like on the other side it's all flooded.
00:04
That's why they closed the westbound.
00:06
So you know, the bridge is closed for now, the westbound.
00:10
So do you want me to go somewhere else or just stay here?
00:13
Yeah, we are looking into a detour before you give us 1 s .
00:17
Yeah, but thank you.
00:19
Base, what's 2100?
00:21
2100, go ahead.
00:22
Okay, sir, we're gonna have to turn you around.
00:26
At Lincoln Dixie and wait your time out at CVS due to the bridge.
00:31
You want me to make a phone call to you?
00:34
I don't know that you're going to be able to.
00:37
We're afraid that might be flooded, so the furthest I would have you go is federal.
00:43
2119.
00:45
2119, go ahead, base.
00:47
All right, 2119, we're going to have to go south on Ocean to Ocean Ave.
00:54
A right on Ocean Ave, a right on Dixie, back on Ruth.
00:59
Okay, they just closed the southbound South Ocean.
01:03
They closed southbound on Ocean.
01:06
The only way you can go is northbound now.
01:08
Okay, how many passengers you have on your bus? I have three passengers.
01:13
Okay, so the only thing we can do here is run Ocean northbound to Southern Boulevard.
01:19
You might want to inform your passengers of that situation in case.
01:23
They want to do something different.
01:24
Careful, no problem.
01:26
I'll do that.
01:27
I'll let you know what's going on.
01:28
Ten four.
01:32
Good morning, base 1706 .
01:34
Seventeen oh six.
01:36
Block 10031051 from the yard.
01:39
Have a blast day.
01:40
Ten four, ma'am. You do the same.
01:41
2119 to base.
01:43
Go ahead. Okay, so westbound over the bridge is closed.
01:48
Southbound on Ocean is closed.
01:50
I'm heading north on Ocean to Southern Boulevard.
01:54
I'm going to go over the bridge that way.
01:56
Do you want me to go ahead and come back on route at Southern or you want me to go ahead and go on Southern to the mall?
02:03
Do you have passengers? Yeah, they're going to, they just want to go over the, you know, close to water so I can.
02:10
And
02:11
then they can catch one going.
02:13
Yes, 2119. For now, go ahead and when you make the left, take Federal back to Lakeworth.
02:19
Take that right on Lakeworth and then we'll get you caught up in a bit because somebody else probably gonna have to be turned around and be early in a bit.
02:26
So we'll catch you up.
02:28
10-4, no problem.
02:29
For your information also, I want to tell you that all traffic has been detoured northbound on Ocean.
02:37
So this is going to be.
02:38
You know, it's gonna be backed up.
02:40
The follow sixty-two behind me is already at the beach, so you might want to contact that driver also.
02:49
Yep, ten four.
02:50
That's why the rest of them outside of you two, we're gonna turn around at Federal, the old way, and have them avoid the beach.
