It looks like 11th and Walnut is blocked off.
00:02
Is that a 10-4?
00:05
It wasn't blocked off when I came here earlier today.
00:12
It's a time-specific detour.
00:15
Do you see it in your system at all?
00:18
Yes, they're telling me on Eleventh Street.
00:23
To East Eleventh Street, right North King Street,
00:29
right East Tenth Street, right North Market Street, East Fifteenth Street, North Walnut Street.
00:35
Make a left on Walnut.
00:39
Okay, I can give you a proper explanation.
00:42
So when you're on 11th Street,
00:45
you're going to make a right on King.
00:47
You are essentially go around Rodney Square.
00:52
Come back to Market Street and stay straight on Market Street until you reach Walnut where you're going to make a left and pick up your regular route.
01:03
I'll repeat this back to you.
01:05
So when I make this right, 11th Street, then right again on King Street,
01:16
then right on 10th Street.
01:20
Is that correct?
01:23
That is correct. So essentially what you're doing,
01:26
you're servicing the 11th and King.
01:29
And can't stop at Rodney Square,
01:32
but you can't go down Eleventh Street because Walnut Street is blocked.
01:35
So you essentially have to go around Rodney Square, coming back around Market Street.
01:41
Stay straight on Market Street, follow Market to Walnut where you'll be making a left, and that will put you back on regular routing.
01:52
Okay, ten four.

Just split right on South.
02:11
You're gonna make a right on Market,
02:14
take follow Market all the way to Walnut Street.
02:17
It's going to be winding.
02:18
You're gonna follow Market all the way to Walnut Street, and then you're gonna be making a left on Walnut, and that's where you'll pick up your route from there.
