Atlantic Boulevard Traffic Lights Update

Episcopal is aware of recent morning traffic implications from the traffic lights on Atlantic Boulevard. The school has been in touch with the City of Jacksonville and wanted to provide an update on the information we have at this point: 

• Traffic lights are controlled by the City, not the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO). 
• JSO and ESJ are not currently permitted to manually control the lights as they had before.
• The City has a third party company helping with a traffic study to help inform adjustments to timing of these lights. 
• We do not have a confirmed timeline for completion of this study, however the school is following up persistently to ensure this is done and improvements are made as soon as possible.
  

We appreciate the community’s patience as we await updates and improvements from the City. Rest assured that the school is doing all it can to expedite a solution. In the meantime, we encourage drivers to allow extra time in the morning until this is resolved.
