Three hundred and one is asking if you need them to head back to the ninety-seven to help divert traffic.
00:08
Yeah, it's a four on that.
00:12
I'm currently in between the 97 and Dexter exit.
00:15
I'm getting keeper of the lease right from my lights, but there's still traffic starting to back up all the way to here now.
00:25
And fire is pretty low right now.
00:30
They're advising that we open the fast lane, so we're going to start moving some through on the fast lane.
00:38
Four direct, I think people are starting to get it.
00:40
I don't, except for this cluster of cars, but traffic is starting to slow down and back up.
00:49
This is unit six, all sitting back here by the Dexter exit, kind of slowing traffic down.
00:56
Copy, thank you, Unit Six.
01:00
There, and that three Vectors tender is about on scene now.
01:06
One four, I did get a hold of Dallas County and other law enforcement units were busy or not close to the area, but said that they could send out some fire units to help with traffic control.
01:23
Ten four. If we get the fast lane open up, I think we'll be moving all right.
01:29
The traffic is starting to back up towards the 96 here.
01:36
Ten four. Just let me know if you want me to disregard them and I will.
01:41
But right now I'm just going to have them keep going.
01:46
Yeah, ten four.
01:47
The more units we have to get people slowed down, I think the better will be.
01:53
2301 from 39302.
02:02
Go ahead.
02:05
Yeah, I'm in route over your guys' way from Diamond Head here.
02:09
Take me a few minutes, but just checking to see if you guys need help and where you want me and which way to take traffic.
02:18
Ten four. I've got Dexter out here along with some county guys.
02:22
State patrol's coming as well.
02:24
Slowed everybody down.
02:25
We did have the entire westbound shut down, but we've got hammer lane (left lane) open now with traffic.
02:33
Ten four. I'll continue that way if anything changes and just let me know.
02:37
I can 1022 .
02:40
Ten four. If you're still needed out at time ahead,
02:43
I think we've pretty well got it wrapped up on this.
