Burleson residents might have to navigate through a bit of revelry as Burleson High School gears up for its homecoming parade tonight. In an announcement from the Burleson Police Department's social media post, locals are advised of road closures accompanying the celebration.
The lineup for the parade is set to commence at 5:30 p.m. at Hughes Middle School with the step-off to follow at 6:00 p.m., as the festivities roll through Thomas to Summercrest to Hillside before winding down Elk Drive, ending delightfully at the Burleson High School parking lot. The police's traffic unit is tasked with conducting a rolling closure while street crews get busy with cones and barricades to manage the temporary traffic disruptions. They will then diligently reopen the streets, trailing the parade procession.
For those unexpectedly caught up in the procession, the Burleson Police Department cheekily advises to "please wave like you meant to be there." Burleson PD's guidance ensures not just a smooth traffic experience but fosters a community spirit among unknowing motorists turned impromptu parade participants.
