Instrumental Solos

While writing a piece for say "Jazz Ensemble", how do I indicate to other band members 1. continue playing the designated measures as a continuous loop during a single instrument solo, 2. solo is about to end and other instruments re-enter at a bridge or coda???

Q1. Place the loop section in a Local Repeat.
Mark with text "Repeat (under solo) until directed".
(assumimg it's an 'open' solo).
Q2. The following section could be marked "Play when directed" or "on stick".
