Roadway and Facility Updates


US-90 (Mahan Drive) and Pedrick Road has standing water at intersection and is passable with care. The County is safely pumping water away from the area to help it drain. As a result, the stormwater facility of Pedrick Pond Park is closed to pedestrians. However, the nearby playground (adjacent to the County's Eastside Branch Library) remains dry and open for use. All other County functions and facilities remain unaffected.
