We’re planning the SeaWheeze Half Marathon and Sunset Festival, and wanted to give you a heads up about how over 10,000 sweaty runners might impact your weekend.
SPECIAL TRAFFIC ADVISORY

Road Closures
With thousands of runners set to take over the city for SeaWheeze, expect temporary road closures and rolling traffic impacts across downtown Vancouver, the waterfront, False Creek, Kitsilano, and English Bay throughout the morning of Aug. 8. If you’re heading out early, plan for a little extra travel time, soak up the race-day energy, and consider alternate routes where possible.
