But, competing or not, road closures will more than likely cause a few changes to your plans this weekend. So plan on the finish line on Monroe Ave between Michigan and Louis, to be closed beginning at 3 pm on Friday, May 9, and Ottawa Avenue between Michigan and Fulton, closing at 3 am on Saturday, May 10.

A full list of road closures and expected closure times can be foundhereand in the picture below.
