New traffic pattern in affect next week around Hedding Grade School

Starting next week, parents dropping their kids off at Hedding Grade School in Abingdon will need to be aware of the new flow of traffic on Latimer Street.

Coming off of Route 41, the flow of traffic will be normal — going in both east and west directions — until the first alleyway in which the eastbound lanes turn to a westbound one way.

District 276 Superintendent Dr. Mike Curry told WGIL previously that the new traffic pattern will include drop off lanes for parents as well as a lane for travel.

“In that, there will be a drop off lane only. So you can’t get out of your car you just drop your student off. There will be some parking and then there will be room in the middle to just drive on through.”

The one way extends to Pennsylvania Avenue.
