Big Lime Triathlon - road closures

The event will require road closures from 7-10.30am on Maritime Avenue in the marina and a section of Coronation Drive from Newburn Bridge to Station Lane at Seaton Carew from 7–10.15am. A longer road closure, from 5am-1pm, will be in place from Maritime Avenue up to Victoria Terrace. Signed diversions will be in place.

The event will use parts of the promenade and pedestrians are being asked to follow the advice of volunteer marshals stationed along the route. Dog owners are also asked to keep their pets on leads.

Councillor Gary Allen, Chair of Hartlepool Borough Council’s Adult and Community Based Services Committee, said: “We would like to thank people in advance for their patience and co-operation.

“Townspeople are always very supportive whenever this event is held and we would urge them to help us make it another big success.”

Meanwhile, volunteer marshals are still needed to ensure the smooth-running of the event. People of all ages are welcome, but under-16s must be accompanied by an adult. Anyone who is interested can contact Wild Deer Events on info@wilddeerevents.co.uk
