Downtown traffic will be temporarily affected by the Charlottesville Ten-Miler this Saturday. Both mall crossings and both sides of Seventh Street will be closed from 8 to 10 a.m., said Donovan Branche, assistant traffic engineer of neighborhood development services for the City of Charlottesville.
In addition to these closures, Branche said, the Charlottesville Police Department will limit traffic to a single lane in other streets designated for the Ten-Miler. Police also will enforce slower traffic speeds, he said.
Branche said the police department's primary goal will be to ensure the safety of runners. Ten-Miler Track Club volunteers also will be present to guide runners through traffic, Branche said.
Branch advised Saturday drivers to "be aware of runners on the street between 7:45 to 10 a.m."
