The fire at the intersection of Kildaire Farm Road and Tryon Road in Cary that began around 11 a.m., when a construction accident damaged a gas line will have an impact on school bus service this afternoon.
Buses in western Wake County will be re-routed to avoid the vicinity of the fire, and this will lead to some delay in delivering students to their homes in western Wake County.
UPDATE at 5:15 p.m.: WCPSS Transportation District Manager for Cary Jimena Daniels says the schools most affected by the required detours were Dillard Drive Elementary and Dillard Drive Middle. Daniels says students were 15-20 minutes late in getting home for those two schools. She said knowing about the incident this morning, her office was ready with alternate routes for drivers when they arrived to pick up their buses in the afternoon. She said Cary Police did a good job of putting signage up for the detour and had officers in place to help direct traffic through the detour area.
