John YoungGUEST
Okay, so with the emergency egress, um, there's a report coming in July of this year, so July 2026.

John YoungGUEST
And, uh, in that report, we're hoping that some of the options and alternatives will be there for the egress routes, and also for some of the community connectivity.

John YoungGUEST
Uh, what's specifically being done now, um, well, with reference to the, uh, Hammonds Plains Road traffic congestion, um, I'm meeting with staff.

John YoungGUEST
I have upcoming meetings with staff, uh, on, um, some kind of, uh, traffic mitigation strategies, uh, to try to alleviate, uh, where we can on the Hammonds Plains Road.

John YoungGUEST
Uh, staff is looking at, like, um, the light, traffic light timing, maybe possible slip lanes on Paquah Road, and a slip lane to go up to, uh, Lucasville Road and those areas.
