SUMMARY: With over 9,000 cruising cars expected on the coast, traffic slowdowns are anticipated, especially along Highway 90 in West Buuy. Police will manage congestion while construction at Edgewater Mall should not majorly impact traffic flow. A command center will coordinate efforts for safety and logistics. Spectators are advised to stay clear of sidewalks and be cautious around traffic. Officers remind drivers to be mindful of their surroundings and avoid dangerous behaviors like burnouts. As traffic is expected to increase, those not participating in Cruisin’ the Coast are urged to avoid Highway 90 to minimize delays.

With 9,000+ Cruisin’ cars on the Coast this week, traffic slow downs and congestion are on everyone’s minds.
