To aid the arrival and egress of traffic there will be several restrictions imposed on some of the roads around the racecourse. These will almost replicate those at the Festival, although we have to acknowledge that the work being carried out on the Evesham Road Land Stabilisation works may impact on some elements of our traffic plan.
The key points to note:
Evesham Road (A435)
- The section between Hyde Lane traffic lights and the main racecourse roundabout will be closed to non-accredited southbound traffic between 10:00am and 1.:30pm as well as between 3:00pm & 7:00pm on Friday and Saturday only.
- The section from the roundabout towards town will also be closed to all southbound traffic between 3:00pm and 7:00pm on the same days.
New Barn Lane
There will be a soft closure of New Barn Lane from the Prestbury end and hard closure at the Evesham Roundabout end to enable racegoers on foot to leave the racecourse safely after the last race (4.05pm).
- Residents whose properties are located along New Barn Lane will be permitted access but patience may be required.
Paddocks Lane / Boulton Road / Hill Top Road/Cleevelands Avenue & Drive
- Access will be restricted to residents only from 9am to 8pm
Albert Road
- Albert Road will be closed from 10am to 8pm, except for buses and horse boxes between 10am and 8pm. Resident access should not be impacted.
Broad Acre Road and Barley Road
- Access will be restricted to residents only to stop racegoers parking in this residential area.
