Proposed Road clsoures for 2024.
The Les Mills City2Surf is a fun event for all of Christchurch to participate, either walking, jogging or running. It is all about participation, team building, reaching personal goals and having fun! This year sees the event again back on its original route, from the CBD to New Brighton. In 2024, the Les Mills City2Surf will again provide Christchurch residents an opportunity to come together to share a day of fun, whilst raising money for Cholmondeley.

Some roads are closed before the start time as it takes time for the course to be closed and then cleared for the race to start at 9am.
We are expecting over 10,000 participants and have considered the area when organising this event and taken every opportunity to minimise the impact on the surrounding residents and businesses. We appreciate your consideration, patience, and cooperation during this time.
During this road closure some delays may be experienced. The road closure will apply to all vehicle traffic (including cyclists) except for emergency service vehicles. Safety is paramount.
Roads will re-open progressively, as soon as the last participant has passed, and all course support materials have been removed. Residents and businesses located near or along the course are urged to plan and to be aware of road closure schedules and alternate access routes.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this road closure, please contact us.
