Traffic Control
This is a traffic controlled course. Wichita Police Department will be manning all major intersections, and volunteers will be in the neighborhoods. In many areas, only one side of the road will be blocked off for a running lane. Please make sure you are running on the correct side of the cones to avoid serious injury.
Although we make every attempt to stop traffic for runners, there is always the possibility that a driver will not obey the barricades. For this reason, please be alert to your surroundings at all times. We also highly recommend that you do not run with headphones as they may distract you from observing your surroundings.
If you live on Douglas, and need to leave or return to your home during the closure, please work with the volunteers in the area to make your way to the closest street for access on/off Douglas.
