The 27th Annual TC10K will take place on Sunday April 24, 2016. There is a 10K run and a Family Run. The 10K route starts at Government and Belleville, heading north on Government/Wharf to Johnson, east on Johnson, south on Vancouver, east on Richardson, south on Moss, east on May, south on Memorial to Dallas Rd.

All intersections along the race route will also be closed. Roads inside of the race route will remain open, but motorists will be able to cross the route at intervals at the direction of the police until roads re-open. Pedestrians will still be able to cross the race course, though there may be some delays.

 

There will be no on-street parking on the race route from 4 am until 11:00 am on Sunday, April 24. All cars parked on the race route during this time will be towed at the owner’s expense based on event signage.

 

The current race course offers a significant advantage to motorists in that it allows for rolling openings of roadways as soon as the last runners pass through various points along the route.

 

All streets on the race course will be closed as of 7:45 am on Sunday, April 24. Re-opening times will vary by location. The following is a list of approximate opening times. These times are approximate as the Victoria Police Department will determine the actual opening times based on participant safety. Traffic may be permitted to cross the race route before the race route itself is open.

The City of Victoria will be posting no parking signs on the course two days prior to the event to ensure that all residents are notified of road closures. The Victoria Police Department will be assisting with traffic control for this important community event, to ensure the safety of all participants.
