Town of Palm Beach News Release — The process of establishing checkpoints and road closures in and around Mar-A-Lago will begin Friday, February 15, 2019, no later than 5AM. Expect traffic delays and road closures in this area thru Monday, February 18, 2019. Motorists are encouraged to seek alternate routes.
