Urgent Attention! TRAFFIC ALERT: Starting Monday, August 31st

Late this week, LC Schools received notification about the upcoming restoration project for the Louisa/Fort Gay bridge deck.
- This project is projected to last two months.
- The construction will affect traffic in the downtown area.
- Our primary concern is that morning drop-off and dismissal at Louisa East Elementary School will be significantly disrupted.

Traffic Guidelines to Follow:
- Important! Do NOT block any intersections at any time!
- Please enter at the red light on Main Cross Street or Madison Street.
- The exit route should remain normal, but please **do not line up** along Franklin Street as this will obstruct buses traveling between the West and East Elementary Schools.

The Louisa Police Department has provided a map indicating acceptable streets in yellow and
non-acceptable streets in orange where lining up is not permitted.

Please allow extra time for traffic delays and exercise patience during this construction process! #LCisHome
