ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Drivers around Tropicana Field have noticed a few changes ahead of next week's Republican National Convention. Barricade fencing has been installed around the Trop and the St. Petersburg Police Department.
Affected streets have been reduced to one lane, with business entrances clearly marked. Fencing will remain up through Sunday, September 2.
