It’s graduation weekend! 🎓

Congratulations to the Cal Poly Class of 2026! (Brookie & Paige, we are so proud of you! 💚💛)

Please give yourself lots of time when traveling around the city today and tomorrow, there will be traffic impacts as there are many people here for graduation.

Please, do not drink and drive. Uber and Lyft are a lot less expensive than a DUI and keep you and others safe.

On Friday, June 12, 2026, the San Luis Obispo Police Department will conduct a driving under the influence (DUI) Checkpoint from 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. at a location within San Luis Obispo City limits.
