Town Ask Residents to Limit Traffic around Bohn Park

Beginning Tuesday, March 4, large trucks and heavy equipment will be removing large piles of debris from Bohn Park. The contract for removal was approved by the Board of Trustees Monday, March 3, which is why there is such short notice.

Operations will begin at 5 am and proceed until dusk each day until Sunday, March 9. FEMA requires that this debris be removed no later than March 9. Debris removed from Bohn Park after this date could burden the Town with a heavy cost.

The large trucks and heavy equipment will be entering and exiting Bohn Park, near the 2nd Avenue Bridge. These vehicles will travel along 2nd Avenue, to McConnell Drive for their route. Town ask that ALL TRAFFIC near Bohn Park and around the park please be kept to a bare minimum.
