The Monument Avenue
10K will begin tomorrow morning, and an estimated 30,000 participants will take
to city streets. Numerous road closures and “No Parking” zones will be in
effect as a result.
Events begin at 8
a.m. with the Virginia 529 Kids Run followed by the start of the Monument
Avenue 10K at 8:30 a.m. Street closures and “No Parking” zones go into effect
on some streets, such as West Franklin Street, at 1 p.m. today. Cars parked
along the race course will be towed.
During the event,
Monument Avenue will be closed between Chantilly and Lombardy streets. Portions
of other main streets will also be closed, including Broad Street, Grace
Street, Franklin Street and Lombardy Street. (See maps below.)
