PERRY HALL, MD – In an effort to increase social distancing during the new coronavirus pandemic, Walmart stores in Perry Hall are implementing one-way aisles.

Beginning Thursday, all Walmart locations will start using the single-direction aisles.

“There will be floor decals in place to help indicate the direct traffic flow. You will find green ‘Shop This Way’ decals indicating the entrances of each aisle,” Walmart said in a Facebook post Tuesday. “You will find red ‘Do Not Shop This Way’ decals to tell opposing traffic not to enter the aisle.”
