Police: Expect Downtown Delays next Saturday

Westport Police Department Press Release: 

The Westport Downtown Merchants Association will be holding an outdoor downtown shopping event next Saturday, June18th from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.  This event will necessitate the closure of Main Street between Post Road East and Elm Street from 7:00 AM until 6:00 PM on June 18th.  These road closures will result in traffic congestion downtown and increased pedestrian traffic as the Yankee Doodle Fair is also being held that afternoon on Imperial Avenue.  

Motorists should expect delays in the center of town due to these closures.  The Police Department asks that pedestrians utilize the marked crosswalks and motorists use extra caution while driving through the area.
