Sounds like it's going to be Route 131. We shut down due to tree and wires across the road. They're asking if you can divert traffic onto Laurel Way.
00:12
Okay, Roger.
00:19
Go on?
00:23
Can you just go out and check Dudley Salford Road by the line? My caller was insistent on it being W. Salford Road, and with where he was plotting, it would make more sense that he was on Dudley Salford Road when he came across the tree.
00:40
Receive. By the way,
00:42
what's your location right now? You on Dulles Salford?
00:47
No, Sarge.
00:52
Okay,

we see, if you have a chance, I should divert to 131,
00:58
I'll head out to, Daly-Southbridge.

Out here on Dulles Salford.

Southridge Road.

Affirm, sorry.
01:27
I'll be here on Southford Road.
01:33
Receive. Receive.
01:35
All right, you can disregard checking Dudley Southbridge. I called my caller back. He says he was not on Route 131, but he did drive through Quintabog and did not go past the college, so he was on 131.
01:50
Received. 5.08, how was it?
01:56
Medical incident based on the college report.
