CYCLING EVENT TO CAUSE ROAD CLOSURES
Sheffield welcomes top international cyclists including Olympic and Tour De France champions to the city for the Tour of Britain men’s race, this Thursday. Whether you’re coming out to support the riders or travelling around the city, here’s everything you need to know to plan for the day. From the stage starting at Arundel Gate, the riders will cover over 160km of roads across the region. In Sheffield they will face two King of the Mountains climbs at Long Lane above Loxley and Jawbone Hill in Oughtibridge. Road closures info and timings Arundel Gate
For the safe setup of staging and barriers at the start line on Arundel Gate, the road will close at approximately 4am on the day of the race. The presentation of teams on the podium will begin at 09:50, ahead of the stage start at 11:00. Arundel gate is expected to reopen at around 3pm, after the removal of all staging and barriers. Rolling road closure To manage the race safely and ensure that spectators have an enjoyable experience, a Traffic Management Plan has been established. The race will be managed by a rolling road closure, which means roads on and around the race route will be closed for a short pe-
riod – usually about 15 to 30 minutes – as the race passes by. This will be indicated by police escort vehicles.
The route will be marked with yellow advanced warning signs in the run-up to the race and members of the public will be politely asked to refrain from parking during the hours of 10:00 – 14:00 on Thursday 5 September. The stage starts in Sheffield and ends in Barnsley going through Loxley, Ougtibridge, Grenoside, Ecclesfield, Chapeltown, Penistone and Thurgoland. The Sheffield parts of the race are in the earlier stages that starts at 11am whilst those in Barnsley are in the latter stages expected to conclude around 2pm in the afternoon.
