Franklin, TN – Thursday’s forecast leaves little doubt that conditions will likely not be favorable for trick-or-treating. With heavy rain and strong storm predictions, residents in downtown’s Hincheyville neighborhood have decided to move their traditional festivities this year from Thursday to Friday. Franklin Police will close West Main Street and Fair Street to vehicle traffic between 7th and 11th Avenues from 5pm-9pm for trick-or-treaters Friday, November 1.
In keeping with tradition, uniformed Franklin Police Officers patrolling participating neighborhoods in marked cars with their hazard lights on will hand out candy to kids in costume on Thursday and Friday night. Trick-or-treat days and times are set by individual neighborhoods and homeowner associations.
Police encourage parents to trick-or-treat with their kids, and remind motorists to slow down and use extra caution Thursday and Friday nights, as streets will be filled with excited children.
