I'm at that ramp shutting it down.
00:04
52521, go ahead.
00:09
Sir, just so you know, we're still waiting on the heavy tow truck to come down that ramp, so it might be a couple minutes.
00:17
Oh, is that with the two tow trucks at the end? Is that one of them?
00:23
There's one tow truck on the freeway proper that the heavy tow truck needs to come down.
00:28
From the ramp to Fort and Poplar, and that's what they're requesting the shutdown for.
00:36
Okay, got it.
00:38
Are you down there or where are you at?
00:42
From.
00:44
Oh okay, I did see a couple of lights.
00:46
I got it.
00:47
I'll let you know when he gets here.
00:51
Copy that, appreciate your help.
00:54
Six five base to six five, so we are closing the entrance ramp but not the freeway.
01:02
Entrance ramp and on the shoulder to this.
01:07
Two one, do you copy?
01:10
Yeah, I got it.
01:13
The other is CP.
01:15
Any runs on what's going on out there? So I need to know if I need to create an event with messaging going,
01:23
letting traffic know that we will be taking lanes or even taking an entrance ramp.
01:30
That would be affirmative.
01:31
Base to six five.
01:35
Yes, it's fine.
01:37
Do we have an update on the ETA?
01:42
I just talked to the tow truck driver and he says fifteen minutes.
01:47
Good copy.
01:48
Base to 521, can we open that ramp until they are on scene? We cannot keep that ramp blocked if there is no reason to be blocking it.
01:59
Heavy tow truck is blocking it.
02:00
Not on scene yet.
02:03
Yeah, I got it.
02:05
Six five, please let us know once they are out there.
02:09
We have 521 on camera, but you are very far from where he is at.
02:15
All we see is your light.
02:17
We cannot see what's going on out there.
02:20
We just have 521 on the ramp.
02:24
This is a copy and we'll keep you advised to be up to date.

Five one nine.
