So at Broom Street to Maryland, I got police activity.
00:05
So I tried to go around there.
00:07
I came down on Cedar Street to cut back off Broom, but at Broom and Cedar they don't have utility work, so they got that blocked off.

I can't turn back onto Broom.
00:21
So how do you want me to finish the route?
00:27
