The Summit County Public Health Department is planning another large-scale vaccination clinic at the County Commons in Frisco on Thursday, and officials are warning residents about heavy traffic expected in the area.
County officials have been looking at ways to help reduce traffic backups from the vaccination clinic this week, including having extra volunteers on hand and additional signage and cones to help with traffic flow. Officials are also asking members of the same household to carpool to their appointments, even if they are at different times.
“We meticulously analyze each clinic that has been conducted and constantly update our operations to make the process as smooth as possible,” Director of Emergency Management Brian Bovaird said in a news release. “With that said, we know there will be heavy traffic, and we want everyone to be aware of the delays that should be expected when we conduct a vaccination clinic of this size.”
