Caney's Mayfest is starting this Friday.

The Caney Police Department wants to remind citizens that there will be some road closings to accommodate several Mayfest activities. Caney PD says they understand this can be an inconvenience so they are trying to make it safe for everyone. Starting Friday morning, the biggest change will be 4^th Avenue being closed from McGee to almost Wood Street.

Caney PD will be blocking off all side streets leading to 4^th Avenue from both 3^rd and 5^th Avenues. Residents on those streets will have access but all other traffic is asked to avoid the area. These blockages will go until Saturday evening when most of the festivities are completed. There will be parking on the new one-way on Ridgeway between 4^th and 5^th Avenue for churchgoers that need to be near their vehicles if it gets too hot during the service.
