Twenty top cycling teams will compete in the eight-day Aviva Tour of Britain, which comes to Ipswich on Saturday 12th September at the end of a 139-mile stage.
The finishing line is outside Willis on Princes Street and large crowds are expected to line the streets to welcome the riders to Ipswich via Wherstead Road, Hawes Street, Vernon Street, Burrell Road and Princes Street. Those riders will include cycling legend Mark Cavendish, who will be making his 10th appearance in the Tour.
There will be a rolling road closure for most of the route and then Burrell Road and Princes Street, along with adjoining roads, will be closed from around 2.30pm. Some buses will be operating on a diverted route as there will be temporary limited access to the railway station.
