The 2020 Los Angeles Marathon will literally be around the corner on Sunday, which will result in the closing of four West Hollywood streets.
The following WeHo streets will be closed between the hours of 4 a.m. and 2 p.m.:
- Sunset Boulevard between Marmont Lane and Clark Street/North San Vicente Boulevard.
- North San Vicente Boulevard between Sunset Boulevard and Melrose Avenue.
- Santa Monica Boulevard between La Cienega Boulevard and North Doheny Drive.
- North Doheny Drive between Santa Monica Boulevard and Beverly Boulevard.
Parking will not be allowed along the race course. “No Parking” signs will be posted before the event. Vehicles in violation will be ticketed and towed at the owner’s expense.
Please plan ahead for an alternate travel route to avoid street closures. You can find street closure information for the Los Angeles Marathon online.
The West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station will keep residents up to date on street openings on its Twitter account: @WHDLASD
I am glad they had the Marathon even with the Coronavirus concerns. I don’t think every event in the country should be cancelled because we have 500 cases in the whole country. Everybody should take extra precautions when attending events, especially the elderly or immune deficient, but we can’t stop living or lives because of this.
This is a reasonable closure and has a very short term impact on residents. Unlike the Pride Event which makes movement very difficult for many of us for a number of days.
