Note Broadlands Road and the ETA off-ramp at Broadlands Road will be closed until 1pm Saturday, while our Landfill and Transfer Station on Broadlands Road will open at the later time of 1.30pm Saturday.
Over the next few days please take extra care on the roads, keep an eye out for cyclists and runners and on the day of the event make sure you look out for signage and detours to help you get around safely. Thanks everybody!
