The Pope is coming to town next week and, well, there’s no beating around the bush: it’s going to cause a major fucking headache for D.C. residents.

Among the most headache-inducing of transportation nightmares is going to be the Papal Parade on Wednesday (all the details of which can be found here). Road closures! Sidewalk closures! A bunch of other stuff you probably don’t know about yet! Luckily, the U.S. Park Police has put together an app to give you “up-to-the-minute updates” about the Papal Parade as it’s happening.

Among the things it’ll tell you about:

• Health and Safety Alerts
• Serious Crimes and more
• Missing Persons
• Facility Closures
• Road Closures
• Weather Alerts

You can get the app for an iPhone or an iPad from the iTunes store, or, if you want to get information delivered to you via text or email, here.
