Transportation Officials Announce Ban on Unsancationed Cyclists on NYC Marathon Course
City transportation officials have announced a ban on unsanctioned cyclists during the NYC Marathon to ensure safety and accessibility.
The New York City Department of Transportation announced that it is prohibiting unsanctioned cyclists from entering the New York City Marathon course on November 2.
According to the notice, street closures in the hours before the race are meant for emergency vehicles, crews setting up for the event, and medical tents.
Cyclists have used large stretches of the 26.2 mile course to organize rides in the early morning hours before sunrise since at least the early 1990s.
In the city, there are rare opportunities for street takeovers outside of the Five Boro Bike Tour in May and Summer Streets in August, both of which are sanctioned.
