This weekend, the 2024 Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle will once again take over the streets of Chicago.
Beyond the sea of runners hitting streets on race day, there will also be street closures around the course.
From March 21-25, there will be rolling street closures --- where police slow and control traffic to clear a section of the roadway to allow a work operation to occur --- for short periods of time.
Grant Park will be closed to vehicle traffic from 6 a.m. on March 23 to approximately 3 p.m. on March 24, according to the event organizers.
Runners and walkers participating in the 2024 Shamrock Shuffle will be utilizing the city’s streets from 8-11:15 a.m. Many streets near Grant Park will be shut down for the duration of the race.
