TYLER – The East Texas State Fair begins its ten day run in Tyler on Friday. It starts with senior citizen activities. And each day there is a lot for families to see and do. There is a magician, sea lion splash and pony rides. Let’s not forget the carnival, the food and the market place. And then there’s entertainment on the main stage. The entertainment is free with your fair ticket. Motorists are also reminded about some traffic flow changes on West Front Street during the run of the fair. You can go to the fair website https://www.etstatefair.com to keep tabs on the daily activities.
On the opening day, the police department will have West Front Street in front of Harvey Hall traffic will be shut down to one lane of traffic in both East and West
directions. That will run from 8:00 that morning until midnight. Starting on Saturday, all lanes will be open until 4:00 each day and then the traffic will revert back to one lane of traffic flow in each direction until closing time of the fair. Motorists are urged to use caution. Those walking across West Front are reminded to use the cross walk in front of the main gate.
