Receive. (name withheld), (name withheld), East Face. (name withheld) East Face? Yes. They stated that they can help out where they're needed as far as they're in. You want them at 63rd and what other crossings? That street that would bring in the ramp. And let us know when they're in place, because I don't want to stop pulling this traffic. Until we have it completely stops where we can get material out. So Sycamore and 63rd is what I'm being told exactly for them to be able to block the traffic. And I request that they call us back when they get on scene so we can start this thing at the same time. Thank you. No problem. have a South TD. I'm on Mina Drive in 440, blocking northbound traffic on 440 trying to subvert these cars into Country Village. Okay. Do you go with that again? I'm at Mina in 440, right? You want me blocking northbound? Yeah, TV, one of you guys stay there, and the other one, if you can, until they don't get off, pick and assist, go up to 63rd in the ramp and stop all that traffic coming down. Have you diverted back, though, before they get all the way down the ramp. Yeah, the other half of TV, I'm blocking off 414 north right before the plaza hotel. I got a close off. All right, receive, as far as you know, is there any other way they can get on that ramp before we start trying to pull this? Unless they come off from the hotel, I'm pretty sure that I'm the only way they can get done. Just make sure no one's cutting through the hotel to fire. In and out of the hotel from the way I'm blocking, so somebody would have to pass me. We should be worse enough. They might be able to get on 440 from there. The GD unit, I mean, a drive. You being there, is it helping out at all? If not, then go meet up with the GD unit and take care of the Polansky Drive one. Any cars coming from the south? Yeah, from the south. So if you want me to go further down, I can. Yeah, use your judgment wherever it will work best. Like I said, we're going to try to get this traffic next year out. But I don't want to do it until there's no more traffic that can come on to 440. Okay. Okay. So put us off on the call or stuff on please. All units in the city, all units in the city, avoid the area of Society Hill North and 440 Northbound due to road closures from a transformer fire. Once again, all units in the city, avoid the area, Society Hill North, 440 Northbound. Road closures due to a transformer fire. Time. And one of the guy out of the four car, I need you to come down here to Suburvy Terrace, where DC&G is. Come near these wires, please. L-T, I'm not sure if they got it. It came through on my end, a little broken up. You might have to go again with it. Help you to, I believe it's South Warcar. Okay. So forth. Yeah, I'm going to need one of you guys to come down over here by a PCNG truck. Make sure none of the civilians from just a country village are walking under the wires or even near the area over here. Very soon. Detail. I'm okay, and all are you? Guy. I'm also a quick personal. Thank you for you. Three evidence drop off TCL, we're going to add back to the eastern end up on this. Resident is having a dispute security guard about our phone. You can disconnect your...
