Traffic Management
The two westbound lanes of Kirkwood Blvd. will be split to allow one lane to travel westbound and one to travel eastbound.
Both eastbound lanes will be closed to allow a buffer for
the participants.
Grace Lane and Blessed Way will both be closed during the event.
All closures will be monitored and regulated by Police.
A meeting was held recently between the applicant and city staff from planning, community services, engineering, police and fire to discuss the road closures and ensure that everyone
was OK with what was being proposed. This slide indicates the traffic management plan that resulted from that meeting.
