A location of Darkwater, redirecting traffic on Darkwater.
00:08
Okay, 48.
00:11
Deputy Chief 62.
00:14
Deputy Chief 62.
00:19
Go ahead, Townie.
00:22
State's cars coming up on the traffic light, they're at Darkwater.
00:25
Are they safe to come north and the southbound?
00:28
Or is that going to back the ambulance up?
00:32
Deputy from 11, if you could pull the southbound traffic, we could get some of the northbound traffic flowing through, including that city.
00:42
County, the ambulance is on the southbound side, so they might block them off.
00:48
All right, can the state get up to your apparatus then? Is there vehicles between you and Darkwater?
00:56
We're trying to free up this backlog right now to get them up here and get them moving.
01:04
Okay.
01:09
Like their car was coming out, Wade Road, the 61.
01:11
I'm not sure how far back to that is, but he's going to, I guess, have him hold.
01:16
At 61 in Darkwater till we see which direction we can open up first to get him in there.
01:23
We're at 61 in Darkwater, and we have no traffic between the Walmart intersection and Darkwater at this time, so he should be able to come up this way.
01:38
Okay, yeah, if you just want to direct him on how he can get to the accident, then that's what they're looking for once he gets to you.
01:48
He told him to not go north and southbound, though, that that ambulance had to get out of there before he would do that.
01:56
Yeah, he'll run in top and we can figure out the best way for him to get up there.
02:03
Okay.
02:08
62-3 from deputies.
02:12
Go ahead, Chief Perry.
02:14
Yeah, what's going to be the best way to get State up there then?
02:20
EMS is going to be leaving momentarily.
02:23
Once they back out of here, State can come up.
02:27
That'd be the easiest.
02:30
Okay, sounds good, thank you.
02:34
Unless you have a construction representative down there,
02:38
if they can go through the construction zone, that'd be the other option.
02:44
Okay, I was thinking that, but I don't have a rep down here at this time, so I'll talk to him once you get seen here and see.
02:52
It looks like he does have a straight shot up, but I don't know what they have going on on that side.
03:01
I have a representative from J.D.
03:03
Ekman here, Chief.
03:05
You can send State through the dirt if the M.S.
03:07
is still here.
03:12
Okay, sounds good.
03:13
Thank you.
