Road Closure Announced for Holiday Event
On Tuesday evening, Montgomery County will experience a temporary road closure due to a special community event. Authorities have confirmed that State Route 4 southbound will be inaccessible to regular traffic from 7:45 p.m. until 8:30 p.m.
Dayton Police explained the reason for the closure, stating: "This is part of Operation Santa's Sleigh, where public safety vehicles will have their emergency lights activated in a procession that will travel through many communities to help spread cheer."
Multi-Agency Participation
Several law enforcement agencies will join this festive initiative. According to social media announcements from the Montgomery County Law Enforcement Officer Memorial Association, Light Ohio Blue coordinates this annual event that occurs simultaneously in nine Ohio cities.
The procession will pass through multiple communities including Dayton, Moraine, West Carrollton, Miamisburg, Miami Township, Centerville, Kettering, and Oakwood. The caravan will conclude its route at Dayton Children's Hospital along State Route 4.
More than 200 emergency vehicles with activated lights will participate in this holiday display. Additional details about the event are available through official channels.
