The Foster Grant Ironman World Championship 70.3, Presented by Ford, will impact Pinellas County traffic on race day, Saturday, Nov. 13. Lane and road closures will start at 5 a.m. throughout the county. Clearwater Beach road closures will begin at 3 a.m., and drivers will not be permitted to travel south of the roundabout due to closures on Coronado Drive and South Gulfview Boulevard.
Clearwater Beach Traffic Impact - Because a majority of the event takes place at Pier 60, most of South Gulfview Boulevard will be closed from Tuesday, Nov. 9, to Monday, Nov. 15, and Coronado Drive will be closed from the Clearwater Beach roundabout to Devon Drive starting at 3 a.m. on race day. If residents need to leave the beach on race day, they should plan to leave the before 7 a.m. to avoid the traffic impacts. Between 7 and 9 a.m., north beach residents will have limited access to the roundabout. South beach residents and those needing access to and from south beach after 3 a.m. will need to use the Belleair Causeway.
