Title

Consideration of a Road Closure for the Tour De Pink 5K on Saturday, October 1, 2011 from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.

Body

Item Summary:

Tour De Pink 5K, organized by the Young Survival Coalition: Young Women Facing Breast Cancer Together requests a road closure for portions of Old Roswell Road, Wills Road, Northmeadow Parkway, Hembree Parkway, and Hembree Park Drive. The route begins and ends in the City of Alpharetta at Encore Park.

The organizer will be using the Alpharetta Police Department (APD) for the road closure so there will be no cost to the City. Lt. Robert Wessel of the APD has been working with Sgt. Ken McRae.  There is no cost for services because the Roswell Police and Transportation Departments are not involved in the road closure. The APD will close the right lane for the entire route and then open the lane after the last runner so the roads will reopen progressively. The left lane will remain open for travel at the direction of APD.
