The following is a news release courtesy of the city of Santa Clarita.

Beginning at 3:40 a.m. on Sunday, May 8, 2016, several street closures will be in effect throughout Santa Clarita for the 2016 Wings for Life World Run, according to city officials.

The 35-plus mile course will have rolling closures which will see roads close and reopen as racers pass through various segments of the course.

A schedule of estimated times for closures and reopenings can be found online here. Most street closures are expected to be re-opened by approximately 6:10 a.m., if not earlier.

The city strongly suggests residents avoid travel, if possible, between the hours of 3 a.m. and 7 a.m. on Sunday morning. Although the event will be held at a time when traffic volume is low, motorists traveling during that time may be detoured.

Residents should be advised that Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies will be deployed along the route to help ensure public safety for both participants and motorists, and will strictly enforce posted road closures. Additionally, emergency response vehicles will have unimpeded access to the entire Santa Clarita Valley for the duration of the event.
