Police note that Atlantic Avenue will remain open. Also, if you enter any of the areas that are blocked-off, you will be arrested.
If you wish to view the implosion, one of the best areas with a clear view is from Bader Field. The City will be opening Bader Field, for a small parking fee, as a viewing area that morning. On that day, traffic can enter from between Sandcastle Stadium and Flyers Skate Zone (not the main entrance to the stadium).
Maps of both the exclusion area and of the Bader Field viewing area are available from the Atlantic City Police Department.
