Ready, set, street closures, detours. That's pretty much what will happen Sunday morning in Venice when the Herbalife Triathlon LA gets underway.
Venice residents and others can expect congestion and delays Sunday, according to race officials. This year, to protect the safety of competitors and spectators, there will be no vehicular crossing points along the route.
Street closures on Sunday will be managed by the Los Angeles Police Department and the Department of Transportation. Vehicles must be parked off the streets designated in the map above.
The closing and opening of streets impacted by the cycle and run portion of the triathlon will be managed in waves in three sectors:
- Sector 1 – Venice Beach, Venice Boulevard to Fairfax/Wilshire (approximately 6:50-9:30 a.m.)
- Sector 2 – Fairfax/Wilshire to Olympic/Cherry (approximately 7:10-11:50 p.m.)
- Sector 3 – Olympic/Cherry to 1st/Hope Avenue (approximately 7:30 a.m.-1 p.m.)
In the Venice Beach area, the streets will be the first to open at approximately 9:45 a.m., according to the website. No freeways will be closed. Race officials recommend drivers go to their nearest freeway on-ramp to the 405 to travel north or south, and the 10 to travel east and west.
