Agenda Item

Consider various road and lane closures on May 8, 2011 from 7:00 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. for ARC Daisy 5K.

Background

The Austin Runners Club will hosts its 34th Annual Daisy 5K on May 8, 2011. An estimated 1,000 runners and spectators will take part in the race.The race will begin at 8:00 a.m. at The Round Rock Premium Outlets near I-35 and Westinghouse Rd. and will conclude at the finish line area located in the back of the Round Rock Premium Outlets.

The proposed route utilizes Terra Vista Parkway, Centerbrook Place, Tree Path, Bent Wood Place and Clear Meadow.
The roads with lane reductions include:

• Terra Vista Parkway, between the outlet center north entrance and Centerbrook Place and between Clear Meadow and the north entrance road to the outlet center
• Centerbrook Place between Terra Vista Parkway and Tree Path
• Lone Tree Path between Tree Path and Bent Wood Place
• Bent Wood Place between Lone Tree Path and Clear Meadow
• Clear Meadow between Bend Wood Place and Terra Vista Parkway
• Terra Vista Parkway between Bent Wood Place and the north entrance road to the outlet center

A comprehensive traffic control plan, which has been approved by the City of Round Rock, will be used to position barricades along the route as well as officers of the Round Rock Police Department.

Public notice signs will go out along the route, as well as letters to business and residences.

The county engineer, sheriff's department and EMS have all reviewed and approved the plan.

The traffic control plan is attached as well as the approval letter from the City of Round Rock, a map of the route and sample of the notice that will be sent to homeowners and businesses in the area.

This is the same exact route and plan that was approved by the court and City of Round Rock last year and we received no complaints, as a matter of fact the Austin Runners Club received many compliments on the race and the route.
