Road closures will commence as early as 5 p.m. on Saturday, lasting until approximately 3 p.m. on Sunday. This means that areas around Riley Park, Coal Harbour, and Downtown will experience considerable traffic changes.

Key details about the Vancouver BMO Marathon:

• The start line is located at Queen Elizabeth Park.
• The finish line for both the marathon and half-marathon is on West Pender Street between Bute Street and Thurlow Street.
• Road closures will restrict access to Cambie Street from King Edward Avenue to West 41st Avenue on Sunday.

Public transit will also see alterations—multiple bus routes will face detours due to these closures. Local authorities have advised residents to plan accordingly, especially those living near the affected areas.

As the event draws closer, officials are urging participants and spectators alike to stay informed about the changing traffic conditions. The city expects that while the marathon promotes community engagement, it will also necessitate careful planning for commuters.
