Road closures for Kirkcaldy Parks Half Marathon and how long they will be shut

138 traffic signs informing Kirkcaldy residents of road closures in their area while the marathon is on have been erected throughout the town. Pictured is one at the entrance to Williamsons Quay at the harbour.

Locals should be aware there will be a number of roads in Kirkcaldy which will be closed for the half marathon on Sunday.

A series of rolling road closures, lane closures and diversions will be put in place from 9.45am onwards until around 2pm.

Closure times will vary, with some roads shut altogether for safety reasons.

What are the road closures/parking restrictions?

The route Kirkcaldy Parks Half Marathon will take on Sunday.

A number of rolling road and lane closures as well as one way and parking restrictions are in place in Kirkcaldy between 9.45 am and 2pm.

Access for emergency vehicles will always be maintained. Services such as the Council’s Care at Home service, meals on wheels and bin collections may be slightly disrupted by the traffic restrictions that morning but aim to operate as close to normal a service as possible.

Remember Abbotshall Road will be CLOSED from 9.45am - 2pm so there will be no access to the Beveridge Park carpark during the event, except for those on the parking attendant’s list.
