Authorities are making safety preparations ahead of the West Indian Day Parade along Eastern Parkway on Monday.

Part of the safety plan from NYPD includes two rows of barricades along the roadway.

The NYPD said it will be the largest police deployment of the year - even bigger than New Year’s Eve in Times Square and July Fourth.

The West Indian Day Parade takes place from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday. Street closures begin at 6 a.m. and will continue to expand throughout the morning.

A full list of road closures can be found on the 311 website.

Police say there will be 13 entry points where all spectators will be screened with metal detectors by officers before entering. Certain items will not be permitted in the screened areas, including alcohol, weapons, and large bags and backpacks.
