02:11
Stand by. I'm walking over.
02:13
Sergeant called on here.
02:14
Stand by. The route is clear except for the block 5758 on 5th.
02:21
Is that going to be an issue? So,
02:22
Chief, if you'll go with it, we'd go, if it doesn't have that block buffer.
02:27
We would like that block buffer, however.
02:29
All right, so we're good with it.
02:30
Carol, Kotler, if there's any way you could have them with the UE and go counterflow and get them out of there, that's fine.
02:36
But until, you know, let's just move forward.
02:39
And Kotler red on there?
02:41
All right, just to confirm, you want five,
02:42
you want five seven and five eight? Clear.
02:45
I thought that was what was going to happen, but you're telling you before.
02:48
Stuck there. The blockers are there, correct?
02:50
All right, the street is blocked off.
02:53
We got heavy congestion now.
02:55
We could bleed it out.
02:56
It's going to take like five minutes to bleed it out.
02:58
No, keep the closures in.
03:00
Just 10-1[2] meet. Keep the closures in.
03:01
The route on 57th Street is clear, correct? The apartment is completely closed.
03:06
Okay, Joe, we're clear on the route.
03:08
That's a test floor, hi, I'll relay it.
03:10
Chief O'Solvin on here?
03:11
Yeah,
03:12
so, Chief, be advised there's something new that came up, so we might have a little more time to bleed out anytime if we need it out.
03:20
We have some more time.
03:22
All right, so I'm going to bleed out that 5-7 and 5-8 on 5th, okay?
03:26
Careful. Captain Leight on the check follow.
03:28
Okay, a cutler on the air.
03:29
Gordon Cordero on the air.
03:30
Go Cordero.
03:31
Yeah, we've got some more time. You can bleed out 5-7 or 5-8.
03:33
Town for, Inspector, we're going to take care of it, right?
03:35
Just remember as you're bleeding the mouth, they got to get off 57th Street.
03:39
Chief O'Sullivan on the air? Yes, go.
03:43
Chief, Intel adjusted advice that he'll be in for an extended amount of time now, so we are good to open up except for your sixth.
03:52
You sure about that? It's gonna take a while to clear 57th Street again.
03:56
Yeah, boss, the thing is, they're not given us any sort of timeline.
03:59
So at this time, they suggested that we open up.
04:02
I think we should keep six clothes,
04:04
but I think how we had it before might work out.
04:06
All right, so everybody, 6th Avenue closures remain in.
04:10
57th Street, we're going to reopen.
04:12
And for the record, when we implement the closure again, you must inform highway they can't put the closures in until it's bled out, okay?
04:22
