We are seeking your approval to shut down westbound traffic on a 0.6 mile segment of Commons Dr, stretching from the Mattie Kelly Cultural Arts Village site ta the entrance of Kelly Plantation, for a period of 90 minutes ihe morning of the event. This entire stretch of Commons Drive is divided by a median negating the necessity to request traffic be closed in both directions. We consulted Capt. Terry Watkins of the Sheriff's Dept. regarding our traffic management plan. Based on his recommendations, we will have members of the SherifP’s Posse at each major intersection and business establishment with ingress/egress onto this section of Commons Drive. Those intersections include the entrance to Kelly Plantation, Fresh Market, and both sides of Home Depot. Traffic volunteers will be along the race route to assist the Sheriff's Posse. The remaining portion of the race route will run through Kelly Plantation. We are concurrently seeking approval from the Kelly Plantation Homeowner’s Association for use of their roads. A map of the route, along with traffic volunteer placement (including intersections worked by the Sheriff's Posse) is enclosed for your review, We recognize that some businesses along this stretch of Commons Drive will be open during the race. We will allow cars to pass through the intersections when there is no hazard to race participants. This will allow motorist to gain access to these establishments with minimal inconvenience, while still providing safety to our race participants. In conclusion, we believe our traffic management plan will be effective and minimize inconvenience to motorists the morning of the event. The Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation appreciates your time in reviewing this request. Thank you for your support.
