Stated closure times are maximum time the roads may be closed to implement and safely remove road closure. We will lift closures as soon as possible after the final runner leaves each highway meaning closures should be lifted in advance of the stated closure periods below:

York Avenue 8:30am – 11:00am
Bede Burn Road 8:30am – 11:00am
Kent Street, Park Road & Surrey Street 8:30am – 11:00am
Dene Terrace 8:30am – 11:00am
(This effectively closes The Crescent & Laburnum Avenue)

Local Traffic Only:
Only local residents, church congregations, stadium gym users (with pass) and event staff will be allowed in to Monkton Village.

We strongly recommend traveling to the event by Metro with both Fellgate (10min walk) and Jarrow (15min walk) stations very close to the course.

There will be no parking at Monkton Stadium available for runners. (Blue Badge Holders, Event Staff & Stadium Gym Pass holders ONLY).

The access will be restricted during the race to allow runners in/out of the stadium as part of the race route.
