Traffic Changes Coming--Oct. 25th
The change is coming soon. In working with the City of Northfield, we will change the traffic pattern entering and exiting our school beginning on Oct. 25, 2021, which is right after the MEA break.
We will change the entrance to the school from Jefferson Parkway to Division Street (Highway 246) with traffic being one-way entering campus and exiting at Jefferson Parkway. This approach will allow us to double the number of vehicles that can be lined up on our school property instead of backing up onto Jefferson Parkway.
We are working on signage and preparing for the painting of arrows and lines. Eventually, we will need an entrance sign indicating the entrance to Bridgewater; we will start with a welcome banner in this location.
Here are the links from the City of Northfield of videos explaining the traffic flow change:
