I hate that I even have to make this post. But here it is please know when you see cones, barricades, or emergency vehicles setup like this. That means you can NOT pass through these roads are shut down. They could be shut down due to an incident or us trying to protect an area for our citizens to enjoy an celebrate an event. So please stop making the area unsafe for our firefighters, police officers, Txdot employees, and citizens by driving through these areas. There is no reason to get upset with anyone standing in those spots to block traffic it should be known just by seeing the cones an vehicles setup that you can’t pass through. Thank you
