Expect Delays in Greens Farms Area Sunday for Half Marathon

A message from the Westport Police Department: 

The Westport Police Department advises all residents and motorists that the Greens Farms area will be impacted by the running of the Fairfield Half Marathon on Sunday, June 23. 

Runners will enter Westport on Greens Farms Road at the Fairfield town line, continuing to New Creek Road and on to Beachside Avenue before exiting town into Southport.  

Through traffic will be stopped or severely limited while runners make their way through town. Motorists should anticipate heavy delays due to road closures along the race route. 

Race organizers state runners will enter town by 9 a.m. and be off Westport streets by 10:15 a.m.

The race route runs for three miles on Westport roads. Westport emergency personnel will be stationed inside the route area to respond to any emergencies with minimal delays. 

Please consult the attached map for specific route information. Consider alternate routes if you have to pass through the area. Residents along the route should expect that it will be difficult to get in or out of driveways during times of heavy runner presence.
