Hotline to take questions about doing business in Pope security zone
Business owners can finally get some answers about how to wade the holy waters of September's papal visit.
Monday at 1 p.m., the commerce department will open a hotline to field questions about how to conduct business within the new security zone.
Businesses located within "The Box" (see black parameter on the map below) will face certain restrictions. It will be a no-traffic zone. Only authorized vehicles will be allowed on the street, and parked vehicles must be relocated, which many restaurant owners have said will prevent them from getting deliveries. Moreover, employees who rely on public transit may have a difficult time getting to work.
Some businesses have elected to close for the weekend rather than deal with the hassle.
The number for the commerce department hotline will be released shortly. You can find more information here.
