Saturday Morning Road Closure Information for OCTAFest

There is a race on Saturday morning near Miami University Hamilton. There will be some street closures: both University and Williams will be closed and part of Neilan.

The man in charge of the race logistics says they will be allowing cars to travel on University if they enter from Knightsbridge.

The roads should only be closed from 7am-10am so hopefully it won’t be too much of a hassle. If people come down Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd, they would normally enter from Knightsbridge.

Those coming from Hamilton/Pleasant Avenue will need to continue on a few blocks and turn left on Knightsbridge.
