If it is more than that, we’ll need more information/coordination.

In addition, transit services that utilize Washington Street will have to be detoured. All areas where parking will be restricted will need to be signed no less than 48 hours in advance. Are we going to block all of the streets impacted for the parade? This would impact several blocks of on street parking on Van Buren, Dubuque Street, Iowa Avenue and Washington Street.

If in the street, Police escort is recommended. If on sidewalks, recommend participants observe traffic signals and rules of the road at intersections, and courtesy to others on the sidewalks.
