Road Construction Changes Things For Red, White & Boom

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

The fireworks will still go on, you may just have a slightly more difficult time getting to a great place to see them. Road construction in the area has caused several of the most popular sponsors and entertainers associated with the event to move to new locations for this year.

As always, most of the major roadways in the area will be closed. Some have already been shut down in anticipation of the nearly half-million strong crowd that sees the fireworks every year. According to local radio station WNCI, the primo spots for viewing the fireworks will be in North Bank Park and McFerson Commons Park.
