846, go ahead. 4846, are you able to advise if there is any access to westbound golf links on Craig Cross and Swan or is it entirely shut down for the link? 846, that's going to be a hard shutdown in that entire area. 46, copy, thank you. You can show us transporting one patient to the VA. Check.

840 from Engine 9, I copy, you're in the westbound lanes. Come up as far as you can, and then you'll have to turn around to get out of here. But let me know when you're here, and I'll guide you in. 840, copy, we're approaching the state right now.

I was dashin and saw multiple officers speed down Craycroft going southbound. I was wondering what happened 😕 Also I was there probably a half hour ago before this happened 😳 Multiple times. But the speeding is ridiculous. Sometimes I think when im doin 40 its the wrong speed cause everyone is passing me by. Then they cut me off jus to turn when they could've jus waited. Pisses me off
