Hi given the Marathon is on Sunday, does anyone have an idea of any streets around ER which will be closed say 2pm onwards

Thanks for that. My first impressions are that it's going to be difficult to get anywhere near the Stadium. Early start required!

Thanks. Doesnt sound too bad given it looks like the road around ER will be open well before the game.

I'm sure the roads are only closed to 1230 and that is loch end road,leith links and seafield road. Not sure about Musselburgh but imagine they won't open till a way bit later as that is half way point for the marathon I think.my wee boy is paying at leith links in the morning and that will be a hoot getting parked near the links.

The runners will be well clear of ER by then but I wonder how quick they will be to uplift the bollards. Applies to Marionville and Lochend roads.

Roads opening up from 12 but no parking till after 2 so presume that is for cones etc to be lifted.
