Streets to Close This Morning for Veterans Day Parade


The Veterans Day Parade will begin at Abercorn and Gwinnett streets at 10:50 a.m. Friday.

It will proceed north on Abercorn to Oglethorpe Avenue, where it will continue west to Montgomery Street. The parade will then move north on Montgomery to Broughton Street where it will proceed east until its end at East Broad Street.
Several streets will close Friday morning for Savannah’s annual Veterans Day Parade.

The intersections will be closed from 10 a.m. through 1 p.m. for the parade. Before the parade begins the staging area is expected to impact three blocks from Gwinnett Street south to Henry Street, Drayton Street, Abercorn Street and Lincoln Street.

There will be NO PARKING signs clearly posted along the staging area and parade route. SCMPD is asking for the public’s assistance by finding alternate parking between the hours from 7 a.m., until after the parade.

The parade begins at Abercorn and Gwinnett streets and travels north to Liberty Street, west to Montgomery, north to Broughton Street, east to East Broad Street, and south on East Broad Street, where it will disband. We expect the parade to be finished by 1 p.m.

Drivers should look for alternate routes.
