Have been down this road as I have American people arriving by train tomorrow and asked the council
Thank you for your email.
With regards to guests reaching you from the train station, the route should be quite straightforward, though it may be a little slower than usual. They can head directly to you along Augusta Street, Madoc Street and Chapel Street. Although Gloddaeth Street will be closed for the duration of the race, a crossing point will be available for traffic to cross from Chapel Street over to Arvon Avenue from which they can turn into Abbey Road to your guest house; this Gloddaeth Street crossing point will be manned by trained Stop/Go board operatives. Obviously, there may be some delays at the crossing point as the operatives wait for appropriate gaps in the runners to allow the traffic to cross.
We have been assured by the race organisers that although the roads are officially closed, they are endeavouring to minimise disruption to residents/visitors: Access will be maintained as much as possible prior to the race and roads will be reopened in stages along the route once the last runner has passed through. Crossing points have been arranged so that people can get across to the Great Orme side of the town and an amendment was made to the race route to ensure free flow of traffic around the busy retail parks.
With regards the list of road closures, we can send you a copy of the Temporary Traffic Notice, but first off I would advise you try looking at the race website
www.llandudno10.co.uk where there is an aerial view picture of Llandudno with the race route marked on (on the main home page, scroll down towards the bottom of the page to find this). This gives a good indication of the open roads, and as I mentioned earlier, there are crossing points in place to get to and from some of the areas that appear to be ‘hemmed in’.
Please note that all concerns and complaints that have been raised will be brought to the attention of the race organisers and the council’s Marketing team, who have been liaising with the organisers so that issues can be resolved or learnt from if/when the event is staged in the future.
I hope this information helps, if you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards,
Lucy
