Peru police set parking restrictions for July 3 fireworks

The Peru Police Department announced the temporary parking restrictions for the July 3 fireworks display.

These temporary restrictions are in addition to the regular restrictions that are already posted. Attached is a list of those restrictions.

The restrictions will go into effect at 5 p.m. on July 3 and will remain in effect until the fireworks have concluded. Vehicles in violation will be ticketed and towed away at the owner’s expense. There will be no parking across from the old electric plant, which is where the family area will be located.

There will also be barricades set up at the intersections of Water and Plain streets and Putnam and Water streets. No traffic will be permitted on Water Street between Plain and Putnam streets.

Traffic will not be permitted southbound on Pike Street from Market Street, as well as Putnam Street south of First, after 7:30 p.m., which means no traffic except for emergency vehicles will be allowed on Water Street.

Special attention will also be paid to Putnam Street. It will be posted “No Parking” on either side and violators will be ticketed and towed. Also, individuals who deface, destroy or remove temporary parking signs will be prosecuted.
