Marshalls will operate at all key junctions and wherever possible will allow access for residents when it is safe to do so. They will be as flexible as they can be but we appreciate your understanding if this involves some delay. Please contact us if you have any specific issues which cannot be addressed on the day. We would appreciate your co-operation and understanding during the race.
