Road closures – how it will work
During the event, the safety of the riders, their support teams and spectators will, of course, be of paramount importance. As a result, rolling roadblocks will be in place during the race and certain sections of the route will need to be free of both driven and parked vehicles on Sunday 9th June. At these locations, yellow “no waiting at any time” cones – similar to those used during the Saddleworth Band Contest – will be deployed the night before the event. Vehicles that are still parked on the route prior to the race are likely to be removed on instruction by the police and the owner will be liable for any recovery costs.
The roads affected by parking restrictions are:
- Dobcross New Road A6052 - Both sides its entire length from its junction with High Street Uppermill and Wool Road A670 to its junction with Delph New Road A6052 and Woods Lane

Car parking for residents
If you are affected by these road closures, you will need to find alternative parking the evening before the race. However, we would ask all residents to be thoughtful to others when doing so.
