One of North America’s most historic and prestigious road cycling events is back! 🚴
The Gastown Grand Prix has been part of Vancouver since 1973, can you believe it? This Wednesday, July 8th, elite cyclists return to the downtown core for another day of racing through Gastown's iconic cobblestone streets.
If you're heading downtown, here’s what to know:
🚧 Road closures will be in effect throughout the day, with most closures taking place between 12:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. around Water St, Cordova St, Cambie St, Columbia St, Powell St, Abbott St, and the surrounding area.
🚫 There will also be parking restrictions on Carrall St, from Cordova to Water St, from 1:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
Our tip? Park outside the event zone and enjoy the walk. It'll save you time and help you avoid getting caught behind the closures. Enjoy the races, and drive safe!
