The streets surrounding Frisco Square and the George Purefoy Municipal Center will be closed Saturday morning, October 30, between 7:00 AM and 10:00 AM for the annual Gary Burns Fun Run. Main Street will be closed between World Cup Way and John W. Elliot Drive; Frisco Street will be closed south of Technology Drive; and most of the streets in Frisco Square between Main Street and Burnham Street will be closed. Through traffic on Main Street will be detoured around the race by using World Cup Way, Technology Drive, and John W. Elliott Drive (see attached map).
The Library opens at 10:00 AM, at which time the roads will be open. Library patrons should not arrive before 10:00 AM as there will be no parking available next to the Library until after the roads reopen. However, passengers can be dropped off near the Library using the drop off locations described below.
Senior Center and Heritage Center traffic should use Cotton Gin Road or John W. Elliott Drive to access those facilities.
Race participants will park at Pizza Hut Park. During the street closures, Pizza Hut Park can be accessed on its west side via World Cup Way.
Two drop off locations have been established so that motorists can drop off passengers closer to the event (see the attached map). The western drop off point can be accessed from northbound Dallas Parkway by turning onto Page Street or from eastbound Main Street by turning south onto World Cup Way. The eastern drop off point can be accessed from westbound Main Street by turning left onto Frisco Square Boulevard. (No event parking is available near these drop off points.)
During the event, spectators are reminded to stay on the sidewalks in Frisco Square as all of the roads are part of the race course.
