Four-car pileup shows danger of school traffic
Placeholder Image
A four-car pileup Friday may have been what was necessary to get motorists to stop parking on North Chancery Street while waiting to pick up children after school at Bobby Ray Elementary. Motorists have long been in the habit of parking in the right lane of North Chancery Street to wait for the gate at Bobby Ray to open at 2 p.m. Sometimes the line will extend down the street. School doesn’t end until 2:45 p.m. and school officials want to keep the gate closed until 2 p.m. for security reasons.
