Rally may cause traffic jam Friday morning
By Times Staff
Published July 27, 2006
A back-to-school rally for Hillsborough schools employees could cause massive traffic congestion for early commuters to downtown Tampa Friday morning. The city expects at least 18,000 school employees to arrive in hundreds of buses and thousands of cars from 7 to 9 a.m. for the rally at the St. Pete Times Forum. Drivers should avoid Platt Street and Channelside Drive, Meridian Avenue between Jackson Street and Channelside, Nebraska Avenue between Whiting and Brorein streets, Tampa Street between Jackson and Brorein streets and Morgan Street between Jackson and Channelside. Anyone trying to go to Harbour Island from Tampa Street should drive Whiting to Franklin. The rally will end at noon. For up-to-the-minute traffic updates, visit Tampabay.com and click on Traffic.
