OTTAWA — Beginning today, Garfield Elementary School parents will have a new route to drop off and pick up students beginning this morning. Parents are asked to drive on 12th Street and turn onto Mulberry Street. Because of traffic congestion and safety issues, principal Amy Wormington asks parents to avoid using Cedar Street and turning onto 13th Street. She has sent letters to parents and will have teachers help guide parents. She said it will take about a week for the new route to operate smoothly.
Tuesday, Sept. 6, 6 a.m.
